Emotional intelligence and emotional control are different. They're separate concepts, though I'd bet they correlate a bit.
It's possible to be emotional and out of touch.
It's possible to be stoic and receptive.

- OrvalWintermute 3y agoMy cute toddler mini-me has a high amount of emotional intelligence and intuitively understands other people's emotions, and will reflect other people's emotions. She also has no emotional control and is likely to bite you, or bawl on the floor crying when she doesn't get her way.
- igetspam 3y agoShe sounds adorable! Mine doesn't bite any more but there are still fits of uncontrollable emotion. They very much grok other people's feelings though and are quick with empathy.
