[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a silly question. Being successful has a greater chance of achieving and maintaining happiness. Being unsuccessful has a greater chance of being unhappy and depressed. Simple math. [/quote] This. Plus, being smart, hard working, and successful was my ticket out of an extremely dysfunctional background. There is no way I would have been happy staying where I was and going down the path that was laid out for me. I hope that my kids won’t perceive their situation as dysfunctional, but being hard working and smart opens a lot of doors. And it’s always good to have options. I don’t have any influence on whether my kids are smart (from what I can tell by now they are probably just average). But I want to instill the value of hard work into them. This alone will give them better opportunities compared to many of their peers. [/quote]
