Happiest Children in the World
February 26, 2016
I personally find inspiration in life’s 10,000 joys and 10,000 sorrows….Part of the artist’s temperament is that inspiration is possible in all things.

A study funded by the Jacobs Foundation, a Swiss-based nonprofit, and reported in the Wall Street Journal, found that children in Romania, Poland, and Colombia are the happiest, and those from Nepal, Spain, and Ethiopia are the least happy. The rankings are based on the responses of 17,000 8-year-olds in 16 countries to questions about how safe they feel at home, whether they have fun with their family, and if their teachers listen to them, among others.
The study's researchers cautioned that since "children in some countries have much greater access to a range of material resources than in other countries, this must be viewed within the economic context of very different levels of national wealth."
