There is no eternal happiness or endless cheerfulness. Children
should be made to realize that they cannot be happy all the time. They need to
learn to deal with other emotions. They should have better control over all
emotions. Parents who always keep children in comfort zones are in reality
damaging their future life. One fine day they are pushed out of the comfort
zone and asked to deal with all forms of negative emotions. This is when they
become depressed or go wayward.
To achieve deeper happiness we need to go through all
emotions – sadness, disgust, fear, anger and frustration. We need to accept
them and deal with them.
For well-being throughout life, children should be allowed
to face all forms of emotions. They should be made to realize that not
everything is wonderful.
They should be prepared to identify, understand, interpret
and respond constructively to all forms of situations and emotions. Such
children will be empathetic, capable of having good relationships and capable
of overcoming relationship related issues.
