I didn't really know where to post this, but I thought it was positive so I'm putting it here.
The government are running trials on giving kids classes on how to be happy. I think that that is tremendous. They will use CBT techniques amongst other things to try to counter anti-social behaviour, peer group pressure, bullying and the myriad of troubles and insecurities that adolescents have after it was found that depression amonst children has shot up by 70% recently!!!
I was very depressed as a child and it's only now that I am starting to have any idea of how to be happy.
i think these classes could have a major impact on anti-social behaviour, vandalism, substance abuse, domestic violence.... even encouraging more kids into sport and so reducing the Great British unhealthy lifestyle of fry-up, beer, smoking and vegging out infront of the telly.
I'm going to try and find someone to write to and give them a big pat on the back!!!!
Ships in harbour are safe..but that's not what ships were built for.
