Happiness is as warm puppy, that phrase captures our imagination. Puppies do generate good feelings. But happiness needs to be more than fleeting moments of cuteness. It needs to be at the core of a person. So that a person has a positive outlook on life and feels that success is assured with effort and diligence.
These positive feelings can start with a young child. Children can feel positive about choices they are allowed to make. When given the opportunity to choose between good choices, children come to feel they can make good choices, and being allowed to choose gives the a feeling of freedom.
How does choosing bring happiness? Just imagine how you would feel if you could not choose the food you eat, the place you live, your friends, your activities. It would be a bleak existence.
Many children lead this kind of existence. Someone is always making all this choices for them. In school the teacher chooses the book, the project, the schedule of the activities. But they will be missing out on happiness. Happiness is making your own choices.

Children really need to help us when they express the desire to do so. When we are working outdoors in the yard watering let the children get the hose and explore the wonderful feeling of watering our God given piece of land. Let the children get dirty and build their immune system. Children are learning colors from God’s gift of nature and test the children with their new found knowledge of color in the garden. Many children are being catogorized as being autistic and slow, many children are asking why is my teacher saying I’m slow, the answer is teachers are in public schools and cattle crossing the chldren inot the next grade due to the fact that they have to many children and cannot account their teaching skills to all children. Children bloosom at their comfort levels, amny children are victims of a new genration of drugs that are inhaled or otherwise injested prenatal and no prenatal was ever given due to hiding the drug habit. Pray to our Lord Yeshua (JESUS), put the faith of our fathers back into our next generation. School districts are full of selfcentered PH.ds who cannot fathom their responsibility to treat the children under their care, they only make a assessment or IEP as they squander their time gossiping about this or that and meanwhile children go underserved and ignorantly sidelined by women who will never be satisfied. Pasadena Unified Schools are in shamble, many people chooosing to give their children Love and Care by choosing places like the Childrens Country House in Alta Dena,CA
I truly agree with Richard’s comment. Children blossom at there own comfort levels, if teachers can only spend some more time with each child individually, or if public schools were designed for children to have a little more one on one time with there teacher in the early stages of there education than I am sure our schooling would turn out to be more successful. Everyone’s body is made up of different genetic material, we cannot assume what works for one child, will work for another. This methodology simply does not make sense, if you understand the makeup of our body, and how God has created us. God has made us all unique, he has made us special in our own ways.
