How to have Happy Children and Say Heck with the World

Stop protecting us and we won’t be over weight!

We all want happy children, right?  Let’s get off our high horses and let the children be happy.  Let’s teach them how to be happy and stay in shape at the same time.        Family of bicyle 200x300 How to have Happy Children and Say Heck with the World

I’m to the point that I’ve had just about enough of all these laws that are being past to protect us from even ourselves.  Wear helmets for this; don’t run on the play ground, you could get hurt.  You name it and kids can’t do it any more.  Yes riding bikes are good for you, but have you ever watched a group of bicycle rides with there knee pads, helmets, the right shoes and God knows what else, just in case they fall, etc.  Look at the look on their faces; do they really look like they are having a good time?  Know they are out there because society tells them this is what they are supposed to be doing.  Let’s be in the in crowd.  Give me a break!

Now look at someone riding a bicycle with out all that mess.  They know where they are going and they are having fun getting there.  That child is on that bicycle, because they have some where to go, not because they need the exercise (even thought they are getting it).

Get Rid of the Unproductive Laws

Let me tell you why so many people are trying to find happy.  It has been lost with all the laws to protect us from each other and our selves. For crying out loud; let’s get back to having fun and letting our children have fun.

Yes, bad things can happen, they always have and know body is going to be able to stop this from happening.  It is life.  Laws are protecting people so much that they have taken the fun out of life.   Our lives are being destroyed by laws.

Give Me the Good Old Days and I’ll Give You Happy

Remember when kids ate cupcakes?  Heck they brought them to school for their birthday goody.  They ate white bread with real butter, drank Cool-aid made with sugar, but they weren’t over weight.  Kids weren’t over weight, because they played out side.  They played outside so long that they got yelled at to come home for supper.  Yes, supper was a proper word that was used.

I know some of you are saying, it isn’t safe for kids to be outside anymore.  Strangers are going to pick them up; they can’t be in the sun to long.  When are you people going to wake up and realize that the news and advertisers tell us what they want too.  They want to sell us their stuff.  They don’t care if we or our children are having fun.  There are strangers out their, but teach our children to be tough.  When I was a kid if a stranger tried to pick me up, they probable would have had a problem.  Number one I was with lots of kids.  Number two I was taught common sense and a little street smarts.

Are you ready to Get Happy and Start Having a Mind of Your Own?

It is time we stop trying to protect every body and ourselves and have fun.  Enjoy what nature has to offer.  STOP HIDING FROM NATURE and go get some vitamin D.  Yes put that sun screen on, but not one that is 50SPF.  Less protection is good in this case so you can still get your vitamin D and 9 chances out of 10 you’re not going to get skin cancer, but instead you are going to have stronger bones.

NOW ISN’T IT TIME TO GO HAVE SOME FUN AND TEACH THOSE LITTLE ONES WHAT IT IS REALLY LIKE TO HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!

I would like to hear what you have to say about today’s children.  Are qwe protecting them to much?  Please leave your comments.  Thank you

  1. Thank you for this article!! It is so true that as parents we can easily kill the joy by getting overly concerned or attached to what the media tells us we should do.

    I had this revelation yesterday as my kids walked out the door to their first day of school that I needed to take a breath and allow them to live their lives. Being in 1st and 5th grade, my kids have had many years of learning about my values and beliefs. They have their own opinions and tastes and it is time for them to explore without me getting so attached. I think everyone will feel happier in the long run.
