Captions available

Emotional labelling is recognising and naming one's own feelings; with regulation, it builds emotional intelligence, understanding emotions in oneself and others.
In practice
A parent saying "you're frustrated the tower fell," and a toddler later using the word.
Where people slip
Recognising others' emotions supports empathy. Emotional intelligence is an exam keyword, and it starts here.
