Expert Solution
Introduction

Anger, sadness, etc, are common negative emotions that people experience on a regular basis. Whilst adults have more or less learned how to deal with these emotions and even channel them in a positive manner, children often struggle to express or deal with them in a constructive manner. 

Fred Rogers, the host of the children's TV show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, often spoke about the importance of being aware, acknowledging, and expressing one's emotions. In his song "What do you do with the mad that you feel?" he encourages children to explore healthy ways of managing their anger and frustration.
