THE PROBLEM
Everybody knows that mental health is they key to happiness and even success in one’s life. However, the development of an individual and that of his thoughts, opinions, ways of thinking and his very approach towards life are all based on what he's learnt from his experiences as a child.
Are we absolutely sure all our children grow in an environment that provides them a platform for positive experiences that they can learn healthily from? Imagine if every child had people around him, who always understood him; who not only wanted to discourage negative thoughts and encourage positive thought and action, but also knew EXACTLY HOW!
The various social institutions that a child engages with such as family and education are the very entities that can play the best role in nurturing a child the right way so as to bring out the best in him and help him strengthen and grow on his most positive attitudes.
A huge challenge lies before society in strengthening its social institutions so that they have the resources to ensure overall development of the child.
