Empathy is the ability of a person to understand the emotional situation of another person related to the experiences they face. The film, "Beauty and the Beast" is a great example of this ability, as we can see empathy at different times.

First of all, we can see empathy when Belle decides to be a prisoner in her father's place. That's because she empathizes with the loneliness and sadness that he will feel like a prisoner and she doesn't want him to go through this, preferring to take that feeling to himself. Bela's father also understands that she will suffer and therefore tries to save her.

We can see empathy too, when the castle servants understand the sadness that Belle is feeling for being trapped and leaving her father alone in the world and never seeing him again. The servants try to console her and make her life less sad.

Finally, we see empathy when Belle understands how Beasty behaves, understanding that this behavior comes from loneliness and the fear of never getting rid of the curse. The beast also empathizes with Belle, understanding that she misses her father very much and leaving her free to return home.

In this case, we can consider "Beauty and the Beast" a great film to teach children to understand the people around them, putting themselves in their place, instead of judging them.
