To a child if you aren’t careful, children might
get angry when you give them advice. They are
often immature, and they don’t understand that
you want to help. It’s useful to tell them you
understand what they are going through before you give them advice.
Be considerate, think about how they might feel, and remember that
their opinions matter. It’s not helpful to speak loudly or to criticize; this
makes children feel worse, and they might not listen to you.
