Teach your child to be empathetic in our “selfie” world

Even though the book is set up into three parts — Developing Empathy, Practicing Empathy, and Living Empathy — the introduction explains how to use the book. “Unselfie” offers a blueprint to show how to make the crucial shift to produce happy and successful children instead of self-centered, sad and stressed children.

The following story from the introduction clinched my attention and emotions right away. It helped me to see a different perspective and learn to walk in another’s shoes. It typifies that empathy starts with human connection.
