  • Summary

  • Key takeaways:

    Highly sensitive children process overstimulation more intensely, making empathy and understanding essential in helping them navigate overwhelming situations.

    Building resilience in highly sensitive kids comes from connection, validation, and understanding—not from forcing them to "toughen up" or dismissing their struggles.

    Sensitivity is a strength that brings creativity, empathy, and deep insight. These traits should be celebrated and nurtured rather than seen as weaknesses.

    Parents who recognize their own sensitivity can better support their children by modeling self-compassion, emotional regulation, and healthy boundaries.

    Balancing empathy with empowerment is key to supporting highly sensitive children. Encouraging problem-solving and independence helps them build confidence while feeling understood.
