Importance of Socio-emotional development for child’s overall development
Socio-emotional development influences the child's social adjustment and emotional status. It plays a very vital part in child's overall performance and achievements. A child who is under emotional stress due to the reactions of others or situations around him will not be able to perform to his full potential. But, if a child is given encouragement and a positive feedback, he may perform even better than a more capable classmate.

Voluntary actions that are intended to benefit another person is called Prosocial behavior. Prosocial emotions motivate prosocial behavior. During early childhood prosocial emotions and actions help children to interact with others.
