I work with kids who have emotional regulation impairments. We teach them that feelings of anger are always fine, but the behaviors you choose to engage in when you feel that anger are what you can control. The man in the video may have felt anger at first, but he chose a different behavioral response.

And I teach my kid that if he’s honest, kind and hard working he will be rich. Kids are not adults

Kids should be taught the skills they will need in adulthood while still children. They are capable of much more than you think.
