Teaching Kids Empathy & Compassion

Some time ago, a friend and I were having a discussion on Instagram about some of the terrible headlines in recent years. We were questioning how the world got to where we are today, and what we could do to raise kids who would grow up to make things better.

Our conclusion? We need to teach our children empathy--the ability to see the world through someone else's eyes.

The road to making the world a better place for our kids begins by encouraging them to develop these skills. 

In this episode, I show you the easiest way to do it.
