Synopsis:
What should the ideal child be like? There is no single answer to this question, but we can agree on a series of qualities that can help them face life with guarantees. Not even the greatest love in the world, that of a mother, a father, grandparents, or the most involved teacher, can guarantee a child will be happy. We would give anything to bestow happiness on our children. But that is not possible, because happiness does not belong to us.
Whether a child is happy depends on his or her ability to know himself or herself, to make sacrifices to improve, to adapt to changes, to accept failures and look for alternatives, to have patience and persist...
