La niñez como laboratorio de emociones

Abstract

Twenty-first-century society often emphasizes academic and professional achievements as fundamental life goals. While these are undoubtedly crucial aspects of human development, adults responsible for guiding children toward such objectives face the immense challenge of also supporting them in exploring and expressing their emotions. Fulfilling both these premises proves to be a marathon, particularly when children's emotional expressions are more challenging. This contribution seeks to address the concern of how responsible adults can foster effective emotional management in children, thereby enhancing their holistic development and social integration. Drawing from attachment theory, this involves understanding the implications of the authentic development and expression of emotions for an individual's complete personal growth.
