What makes kids healthy, happy and well-adjusted?

There is no easy answer to this question.

A child’s development is shaped by many influences, including genetic makeup, early interactions with parents or other caregivers, socio-economic factors, and early childhood experiences in the family, at school and in the community.

The fact is that who we are and where we come from has a huge impact on our health, well-being, competence and ability to relate to others and cope with the world around us.
