Happiness is a huge advantage in our world. Happy people are more successful at work and in love. They are more productive, have more prestigious jobs and earn higher wages. Such people are more likely to get married or get married, and when they get married or get married, they are more satisfied with their marriage.
Be happy yourself
The first step to making little ones happy is, paradoxically, a little selfish. Your happiness dramatically affects how happy and successful your children are.
The study found a significant link between parent depression and negative emotions in their children. At the same time, happy parents are more likely to raise happy children.
So how can you be happier? Get together often and have a good time with your friends and family.
Teach them to build relationships
There is no denying the importance of good relationships, but how many parents actually take the time to teach children how to relate to others?
It doesn't require much. You can start by encouraging children to do small acts of kindness and thus build relationships. This not only teaches them the necessary skills and makes them good people, but also makes them happier in the long run.
Expect Diligence, Not Perfection
Parents who prioritize achievement are more likely to have children with high levels of depression, anxiety and substance abuse than other children. Praise effort, not natural ability.
Teach them optimism
Don't want your toddler to grow up as a gloomy teenager? Teach him to find the positive side in everything. Ten-year-olds who are taught to think and interpret the world with optimism are half as likely to be depressed when they reach puberty.
Teach them self-discipline
The final step is to teach children self-discipline, which is considered the main indicator of future success. It is even more than intelligence or any other quality.
This step-by-step plan will help you lay the foundation for your children's emotional well-being. May they be happy!
