Happiness


If I could only choose one thing to change about our society in a way that increases our happiness as a whole, I would start with the accountability of parents and their ability to raise smart healthy and "happy" children. After finishing the video we watched in class, I gained a better understanding of how much your relationship with your parents affects your life. Building a strong foundation with your child is the most crucial role any parent can fulfill. The way we interect and converse with our parents gives us our perspective on how to deal with the outside world and others around us. Too many parents today are ill-equipped and unsure about how to raise their children. The worse reality for our children would be watching them struggle at reaching the same opportunities as the next, when it could be prevented by caring for them in the correct and natural way. What I would suggest is that our government finds funds in whatever department necessary to help reach out to parents and children so that our country would have a brighter future and a more comfortable feeling when the new generation comes into power. Happiness is asocciated with money and reputation but most importantly with the bonds we make with our peers and parents. Finding a way to help them grow into successful people would be one of the smartest investments our country has ever made. The youth is our future and we should make sure that we can teach as many as we can to solve the problems of tomorrow. This would in turn create happiness for everyone who follows, financially and socially.

  1. This is perfect! You literally took the words right out of my mouth. I completely agree that a person usually turns out the way they do because of how they were raised as well as their environment. I feel like there should be a test before you become a parent and only certain people can have babies! but of course that would be impossible but it would be nice...possibly a lot less people on welfare.
