The Power of Fiction in Cultivating Empathy
Reading fiction helps cultivate empathy by allowing us to experience the interior lives of characters and understand that not everyone thinks and acts like us. Specific examples like Atticus Finch in 'To Kill a Mockingbird' and Nick Caraway in 'The Great Gatsby' offer quotable prescriptions for empathy. Encouraging our kids to read these books and discussing them together can instill understanding and empathy in them.
