HOW TO MAKE CHILDREN HAPPY
Children are happy by nature. The people they come in contact with daily change their attitude. Friends, teachers, relatives, and especially television influence a child's behavior. Parents are responsible for their children's welfare as well as their attitude. Children will be happy if their environment is happy. Parents are responsible for keeping their children happy. Don't get discouraged. It can be easier than you think. Your child's happiness really depends on your attitude.
1. Your children need you to be the boss, especially teenagers. Although they may act like they know everything, you know that they do not. Tell your children when they do wrong and correct them. Punish them if necessary. Do not let them be in charge
2. Be a parent, not a friend. Sometimes parents act like a child to get their child to like them. If you act like a child, you will be viewed as a child. Your children will not respect you. Your children need you to be a parent worse than they need you to be a friend
3. Never be mean. Children need parents to explain their actions. Do not give the reason "because I said so". Have a reason for your decisions. A happy child is one who understands why they can't do certain things. Always listen to your children. If you give a child attention when they want it they will be happy. Never ignore your child.
4. Love, discipline, and respect will make a child happier than any gift. If you live a child with these thing they will return the love and respect to you.
5. Teach them moral and religion dicipline so they can grow up to be humble and kind hearted.
