Fairness and justice
IT isn’t easy to learn empathy. It takes time and a conscious effort to learn that what we say or do affects others. What if you were playing with your baby brother (or sister) and he began squirming and struggling to get out of your arms? By looking at his body language and expression, you can tell that the baby is not feeling very comfortable with you. You may want to change the way you are handling or communicating with him. There are steps and signals to recognise what other people are feeling.
