  • Summary

  • In this episode, we explore the unrealistic expectations placed on children to be happy all the time in today's challenging culture. The discussion delves into how various aspects of modern life, from technology to school and diet, contribute to a constant push for happiness at the expense of acknowledging and processing negative emotions. We highlight the dangers of teaching children that only happiness is acceptable, which may prevent them from expressing their true feelings. Join us as we examine whether happiness has become a societal "drug" that kids are becoming addicted to, and the implications this has on their mental health and well-being. Tune in for valuable insights and strategies for fostering a healthier emotional landscape for our children.
