Spend more time with your child<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Parents should be the first to teach their children how to develop their social and emotional skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parents should make time to spend together and encourage their children to open up\u2014for example, by asking them to share stories, express their emotions, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If parents and children don\u2019t have much time, this can be done during spare moments.
