Q5: T is for Transparency. Are empathy and transparency mutually exclusive? #txeduchat https://t.co/CC98Gdv0FX

chargerrific Apr 17 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A5 A false empathy is fake person. Transparency matters. It shows in a persons eyes if they don't genuinely care. Ss deserve care #txeduchat

walker_kathi Apr 17 @ 9:35 PM EDT

I think it does @lm4kids. I think empathy is what exercises are heart and allows it to open up. #txeduchat https://t.co/9966ce03Zf

A4 I wonder if empathy makes it easier to accept/understand ideas/behavior of someone I do not necessarily agree with. #txeduchat

DehaanMaria Apr 17 @ 9:36 PM EDT

#txeduchat Q5 Empathy and transparency must travel side by side in order for it to be sincere! I can't fathom one without the other.

A6 we are building relationships by growing empathy - we must be who Ss perceive us to be- caring, our we shatter them deeply #txeduchat

Tom_Kilgore - Moderator Apr 17 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A6: If we are genuine in relationships then empathy is a natural byproduct. Kids have to know we truly care 4 them/their success #txeduchat

daisyray215 Apr 17 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A6 I think that goes back to building relationships. When there is a community built empathy and respect will thrive #txeduchat

crystaslaughter Apr 17 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: In order to have true empathy, you have to be transparent. Ss can sense false feelings #txeduchat

DehaanMaria Apr 17 @ 9:43 PM EDT

#txeduchat A6 Without honesty things are unclear. Reflection drives honesty that builds trust with yourself and others. Then comes empathy!

MrsJones_Merton Apr 17 @ 9:43 PM EDT
