This article examines children's emotional intelligence in terms of self-control abilities and problem solving. Emotional intelligence is formed in children so that children are able to control themselves, resist anger, be able to solve problems. Get to know yourself and others. From the results of the study, the authors can conclude that children's emotional intelligence is the dream of every parent because children are able to recognize the emotions of themselves and others, are able to solve problems without causing problems, are able to motivate themselves and have an empathetic attitude. So that children who have emotional intelligence are not easily offended, are not easily ignited by emotions, become children who are polite and patient. The results of this study show that 1). Parents always become exemplary emotion teachers for children, 2). Advise with constructive advice, 3). Give understanding to children with language and tone that is not scary.

Knowledge in memory is vast and not always relevant to the task at hand. Recent views suggest that the human cognitive system has evolved so that it includes goal-driven control mechanisms to regulate the level of activation of specific pieces of knowledge and make distracting or unwanted information in memory less accessible. This operation is primarily directed to facilitate the use of task-relevant knowledge. However, these control processes may also have side effects on performance in a variety of situations when the task at hand partly relies on access to suppressed information. In this article, we show that various types of information to be used in a variety of different contexts (problem solving, decision making based on personal information, language production) may be the target of inhibitory control. We also show that the control process may leave a behavioral signature if suppressed information turns out to be relevant shortly after being suppressed.
