EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE IN CHILDREN

Dear Reader,

I wandered into the area of emotional intelligence when researching materials to use in a psychology senior capstone course designed to help college students make a successful transition to the working world. In the fifteen years Ive studied and taught about emotional intelligence since then, the research has grown and the positive benefits of high skill levels in emotional intelligence are much better known. Im glad youve chosen to learn more about emotional intelligence and how to foster it in your children.

Youll notice that I often explain concepts like temperament or ground the information about emotional intelligence within the context of childrens overall development. Knowledge of typical development and the uniqueness of your child will help you apply the concepts you learn much more effectively.

Some of the stories in this book are fictional but many of them are true with childrens and parents names changed to protect their identity. Theres one notable exception to this pattern. The story about optimism in includes a true story about a child named Justin. Unfortunately, his story is true. But, theres nothing at all unfortunate about his life or his optimism. I hope you will be inspired by his story.

Dedication

Justin, this book is for you. Your gifts, both in intelligence and emotional intelligence, have inspired many people and taught them how to live life with joy, perseverance, and grace.

Acknowledgments

Many peoplemostly my children or other children, adolescents, and college studentsdeserve credit for the content of this book. You provided the challenge and joy of parenting and teaching, and I learned much about my own emotional intelligence in the process. Also, Id like to thank my spouse, Bobby, for his endless patience as the need to write took priority over other activities, especially when most of the alternatives would have been much more fun for him!

Emotional intelligence
(-msh-nl n-tl-jns)

(n) A set of skills that helps children identify, appropriately express, and manage their emotions; develop effective relationships; cope with stress; adapt to change; and make good decisions.

Introduction

S o what is emotional intelligence anyway? And, more important, how does it relate to your childs well-being? Does it help to shape your childs long-term success? Simply put, yes it mattersa lotto emotional well-being and success! And, the good news is that you can teach children emotional intelligence skills. Children are not born with (or without) emotional intelligence skills. Rather, they develop these skillsor dont develop themby modeling parents and other important adults (e.g. teachers, older siblings, grandparents). And, they learn EI skillsor notby copying what they see on television, experiencing different events, learning from their mistakes, and by responding to different parenting styles. Their development of emotional intelligence largely rests in your hands.

Even though personality and emotional intelligence are very different, a childs basic temperament or personality will sometimes influence which EI skills are easier or harder to acquire. Think of it like learning to ride a bikeeven though some children are more coordinated or have better balance and therefore learn more easily, almost every child can improve with practice and eventually learn to ride a bike. So, certain children, based on their temperament, will need more practice to be comfortable using a skill (e.g., a shy child may find assertiveness more challenging). You need to be realistic about the pace of improvement and remain patient and encouraging as you actively teach emotional intelligence skills.

Youre probably getting the picture that youre teaching your child about emotional intelligence whether you mean to be or not. Thats correct. Thus, paying attention to what youre teaching related to emotional intelligence should be a major priority for you as a parent. Reading this book and implementing the suggested strategies will help you to engage in intentional teaching of emotional intelligence rather than leaving the lessons to chance, or worse, interacting with children in ways that could inhibit their development of emotional intelligence. For example, if you say to your son big boys dont cry, you are teaching him to suppress feelings of sadness. Yet, you may also give him free reign to vent his anger. Can boys only be mad and never sad? And, how does that combination affect their relationships with others? As some of you have witnessed or experienced, suppressing sadness and freely expressing anger will not help your son be effective in relationships as he matures into adulthood.

Or, if youre hovering too much over your children, doing things for them they can do for themselves, youre discouraging a different emotional intelligence skill, their independence. Children need to develop independence in order to separate from parents, whether its to go to camp, to college, or to pursue a terrific job in another state as a young adult. Even if children do manage physical separation, they may be so emotionally dependent that they cannot handle the expectations of college or adult lifemaking decisions, managing money, or handling minor disappointmentswithout calling you for help or support.
