ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Trust (emotion)

Trust is an emotion that helps us feel safe and confident in the people, places, and things around us. When we trust something or someone, we feel good and safe, like we know that everything is going to be OK. For example, you might trust your parents to take care of you and take care of any problems that come up. You also trust that when you go to school, you will have fun and learn new things.
