Live Well platform highlights ways to support children's emotional needs

The Live Well health awareness platform has emphasized the importance of understanding children's psychological and emotional needs, even when they are unable to express them directly.

According to the platform, these needs include emotional security—meeting a child's emotional needs helps foster a sense of safety and self-confidence—as well as emotional regulation, supporting children in understanding and expressing their feelings appropriately, and encouraging positive communication and relationship-building.

To achieve this, Live Well recommends setting aside daily time for play and conversation with children away from screens, responding to them with kindness, attention, and calm emotions.

The platform also advises naming emotions using simple words, maintaining eye contact by speaking at the child's eye level and listening attentively, and reinforcing positive behaviors such as sharing, kindness, and empathy through praise and appreciation.
