What should we do to make our child happy?

Answer 1

~~love it unconditionally~~

Answer 2

You are the only one that knows your child. I guess the question woule be is why is your child not happy? My first suggestion would be to find out why your child is unhappy, then fix whatever is making him/her not happy. If there is stress at home, remove it. Don't talk about adult subjects (money problems, infidelity, or any other marriage problem) around your child, as these can have major factors in an unhappy child. Second I would suggest you spend as much time with your child as you are able, talk to him/her, find out what is happening in his/her life.
When my daughter has had a rough day and I haven't been able to spend much time with her in a couple days, we always watch a movie together and eat popcorn. She loves to do this. When I have extra time, we go to the salon and get our hair and nails done. I would walk to the end of the earth if my child were not happy to make her happy. Yes, my daughter is one of the most spoiled little girls I know, but she is also one of the happiest that I know too.

Answer 3

You don't say how old the child is. The best way to make a child happy is for his parents be happy and set a good example with your own attitude in life.
If the child is negitive about something ask them "can you think so something good rightnow? Or "can you make me laugh?"
You will not make a child happy buying him stuff. You attention is what they need.
Remember that a parent isn't suppose to be their kid's buddy, but to be that loveing careing person who guides them into to adult hood. Teach your child to care about others.

Your time and attention is what a kid craves. Look them in the eye on their level. Listen to what they say. Before bedtime, take tmie to read to your child and have a time to talk about eachs others day.

Most of all a kid learns to love by seeing how the people around them love. If your child lives in an atmosphere where there is volience and choas, back stabbing, and disrespt. He will not know a healthy way to love.
Also spoiling a chlid with gifts etc is not a way to their heart, it is just a way to teach them to want everything.

Answer 4

Give your child the things they need to survive. A place to call home (shelter), food, clothes, family that loves them.

Be a part of your child's life. Be there to hug them and kiss them when they get hurt. Listen to them. Talk to them. Read to them. Be there for their activities: the school play, their soccer meet;etc. Let them know that you love them. Kids don't need many gifts or toys. The most important thing is your child knows they are loved and that you, as the parent/guardian, is there for them in good times and bad. Happiness is knowing you are important in someones life.

If your child is sad. Talk to them and find out why. If they are being bullied or hurt, as the parent, you need to fix it!!! Make sure the bulling stops by talking to the school or police. Be your child's hero! A hero that takes the right channels to resolve the situation in the best possible way. If you have to pull the child out and find a better school. Do it, as the last resort. If your child is having trouble adjusting or is depressed seek professional help. It is OK to realize that as a parent sometimes you need outside help. Asking for help makes you a good parent, not a bad one.

Give your child self-confidence. Let them know how wonderful they are. Let them know how much you love them and how proud you are of them. Hopefully, all of these, will help your child be happy.

Answer 5

My children are very happy children who have a very active life. They run, jump, play, sing, dance and LOVE to read!!! I really don't know what to tell you to do. I can only say, try the best you can to spend as much time with them and LOVE them. Let them know they are loved!!! Do things that they like to do. I know that is hard in todays world, but in order to raise successful, happy, healthy children, we have to make that happen!! Family is always one of the best values to treat your child. I believe as long as you do this and do the best as parents you possibly can and give it your all, your child will be happy.

One more thing.... RESPECT how your child feels and LISTEN to what they have to say!!! ( even when they are being bad)

Answer 6

As far as I know, a kid is happy when he is given attention and lots of it....so wat I would suggest U is to spend as much time as possible with ur child...If U r a "working parent", then it could be slightly difficult for U.....but still try to be with him whenever possible...help him in times of trouble....if he ain't good at studies or is facing difficulties in handling a particular subject like math, instead of scolding or punishing(which would only further depress the child) help him out with that subject....sit and talk to him when he is in a depressed state.....teenagers usually undergo fits of depression and throw tantrums....during these hours, instead of fighting back, the wise thing would be to have a talk and discuss the troubles of the child....U try my advice...I guarantee U tat ur child would be happy!

Answer 7

Hey make a child happy, really hard................. one thing that makes him/her happy may not work next time.. one small suggetion, let it b child do not force ur opinion on it...i dont know whether it would make the child happy but it would make the child a happy adult,....

Answer 8

What's the situation? How old is your child? Different age groups need different ways to attend to them. So, what's the story behind you and your child?

Answer 9

DONT JUDGE. Thats the biggest problem I've had with my mother. She's overcritical and unsupportive, unless she agrees with something I'm doing. Lots, and lots of hugs and encouragement.

And know that it isn't 100% you that is responsible for their happiness, even if they blame you. All you can do is love em :)

Answer 10

Help him be a giving, generous, kind and humble person. Take him with you to charity services, visits to old folks homes and soup kitchens to help out.

Take him on nature walks, picnics and other outdoor activities. Don't take him shopping. Too much shopping will make him a materialistic person.

Answer 11

Ask them for their opinions often, and let them make decisions. Teach them to handle their own affairs, especially work, education, and money, as they grow. This will constantly increase their personal power and they'll be better able to handle the stresses of growing up - thus, they'll be happier.
