Building Emotionally Healthy Kids
The knowledge and skills with which to develop happy, healthy, successful children and prevent future
problems are available and teachable. Teaching youngsters to make informed, effective choices regarding their emotional, physical, mental and social well-being can lead to the development of happy, healthy, high-functioning adults. As more and more children grow into adults who feel good about themselves, manage their emotions effectively, communicate clearly, learn how to resolve conflicts and how to meet their needs in positive ways, we can move as a society toward the development of a healthy, high-functioning civilization. At the very least, we will end up with healthier, higher functioning classrooms and happier students, teachers and parents!
