A mom's support helps a child learn to handle negative emotions, but what if mom is distressed?

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J When children become upset, showing negative emotions or behaviors, some parents become distressed, while others are able to talk their child through the difficult situation. Studies have shown that a mothers' reaction -- positive or negative -- to her child's negative emotions can predict whether her child develops the ability to effectively regulate his emotions and behavior. A new study explores potential predictors of mothers' supportive or non-supportive behavior during emotional challenges.
