In contrast, the early childhood teacher is often frustrated by the slowness of the healthy pre‐school child to develop empathic responses. Examination of empathy from a developmental perspective helps provide insight into the uses and abuses of fostering empathic responses in both normal and exceptional children.

In this article, we discuss its impact and define our progressive education stance as one that is critical, and therefore inherently political. Specifically, we draw on the scholarship of embodied pedagogy as one expression of critical progressive pedagogies and present emotionally responsive practice (ERP) as an enactment of our stance with consideration of actual student responses and recommendations for teachers and leaders in educational context.

While schools may try to avoid the topic for fear of being perceived as partisan, classrooms that don’t address children’s fears and anxieties may find themselves trying to manage children who are more emotionally fragile, physically driven, distracted, preoccupied and socially disruptive or aggressive. When young children don’t have a voice for what is worrying them, their worries erupt in ways that make classroom life very difficult. If adults in school can’t talk about what is happening for children, then young children are left alone with their own fears and perceptions. They are left to take in the adult confusion and in some cases, despair that surrounded many families in the days after the election.
