Teaching a child to love all living beings is the highest form of education
Animals are an amazing way to teach your child empathy, kindness and trust.
Children’s Mental Health Matters
Our future depends on our youth
Studies show that children who regularly interact with animals have higher self-esteem, confidence, less loneliness, and enhanced social skills. My goal is to eventually create a program where children struggling with mental health issues will work with rescued animals but I need help making that a reality. ❤️
Racism, discrimination, bullying, violence, abuse, suicide, depression; everything we see on the news daily are symptoms of mental health neglect. If we want to see real change, mental health needs to become a #1 priority with our Government and implemented into our school curriculum.
We need to protect our kids
Adding a daily mental health class taught by therapists to our curriculum would help to end bullying. Not only will it help the children being bullied, it will prevent bullies from becoming bullies. Children acting out with hate & violence are projecting it from a pain within themselves. Not all children are safe at home, we need to identify that and offer counselling in order to make change. We also need much stricter laws in place for home schooling with mandatory quarterly mental health check ins. Gabriel Fernandez I saw you!💔
