Continuation 2. Emotions Are Not Problems to Solve Too often, we jump into “fix-it” mode when kids are upset. But Rolland teaches that emotions are not fires to be extinguished—they're signals to be explored. Children need space to feel without being rushed out of their feelings. Instead of saying, “Don’t cry,” say: “I see you're feeling something big right now. Want to talk about it or just sit together for a while?” This validation helps children learn to regulate themselves rather than suppress or fear their emotions.
