How can caregivers help children during good-byes?

A) Distract children
B) Acknowledge and accept feelings
C) Tell children, "you are fine."
D) Encourage children to stop crying

Acknowledging and accepting a child's feelings during good-byes can help them feel heard and validated. This can make it easier for them to process their emotions and move on from the goodbye. Distracting children, telling them they are fine, or pressuring them to stop crying can be dismissive of their feelings and ultimately make saying goodbye more difficult.
