#7 HABITS OF HAPPY KIDS HOW TO#

This is a concept I have been trying to instill in the boys mind for sometime. ‘Goob’ a name very near to dear Aragorn’s nick name, and bug-collecting is a hobby shared by all of my boys - this would be a winner, regardless of the point, but the point proves to be a much needed lesson: It had elements of taking responsibility for your life, happiness and entertainment, blaming no one for your unhappiness and boredom. Imagine my surprise, when that was the point of the story:īut, there was more to the story than just being proactive. They must be interested in something, and proactively seek after it! They must educate themselves in the areas of their interests. I have always figured a child who whines, hoping to get TV privileges or some other form of entertainment, needs dire repercussions. In fact, making such a foolish statement is a sure way to spend the next hour or two doing chores. This is not an acceptable statement at my house. The first title perturbed me! How dare an author of ‘Happiness’ consider such a statement to be worth any one’s time?
