Overview
None of us intend to cause or allow a child to get hurt emotionally. Ideally, when a child comes to our classroom, we want them to feel safe to make friends with other children and trust the leaders. Above all, we want to create a safe haven where children can come to explore the mysteries of God, and discover his goodness. What kind of behavior can we, as teachers, practice in order to keep children emotionally safe? You'll learn what to avoid when interacting with children, and what to promote, such as emotional literacy, self-worth, and confidence. Protect your children from emotional abuse by educating yourself about this crucial topic.

Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping. I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it. God will appreciate it.
