During a radio interview, Trainor talked about how children who were exposed to music at a young age were more socially advanced, easier to soothe, and smiled more than children who were only exposed to passive music listening. This emotional connection is similar to what we see in the viral video of a toddler crying while watching his parents’ wedding ceremony.
But why did the toddler cry when he may not have fully understood the significance of the event? According to Very Well Family, crying is a normal emotional response to experiencing strong feelings, whether happy or sad. However, some children tend to cry more than others and may also be quick to anger or overly excited. This sensitivity is just part of who they are, and they tend to experience a wide breadth of emotions more strongly than others.
So, it’s not a stretch to suggest that the toddler in the video is just a sensitive soul who may experience an array of emotions as he grows older. One way to help children who are more sensitive to emotions is to teach them about their different feelings and show them ways to cope when they feel overwhelmed.
The father in the video is doing an excellent job of supporting his son by holding him in his arms while he watches the emotional wedding video. It’s a great example of how physical comfort and emotional support can go a long way in helping children manage their emotions.
