With today’s social climate, it is more important than ever to recognize that some of our children are taught bias, discrimination and hate. The hate-fueled murderer in Buffalo was only 18 years old. Right now, in the pipeline, children, tweens and teens are taught to hate.
It is important to recognize the significance and impact of school-based hate crimes today. Unfortunately, in the past few years, there has been an increase in hate within schools for all ages.
Did you know empathy can be taught? Yes, some people are born with more empathy than others but the good news is that it can be increased at any level. Learn more in my review of @LynneAzarchi’s #TheEmpathyAdvantage. @SmithPublicity#Gifted#BookReview https://t.co/yvTYr4aOdb

We have endured 'social distancing', quarantine and isolation for more than two years. These restrictions are the antithesis of empathy, community and connection. In the midst of omicron, it seems the word empathy is mentioned every day on the TV and in social media.
Teaching empathy is one of the greatest foundations and gifts that you can bestow upon your child and others. Let's change the world for the better -- one child and one adult at a time.
