Abstract |
Raising happy children is the ultimate goal for many parents. What makes children happy? In this paper, we examine how early- life risks, which refer to various factors outside the control of the child, influence child happiness, and what factors override these risks by analyzing the Longitudinal Survey of Newborns in the 21st Century in Japan. The empirical results show that valuing opportunities for interaction with both friends and family can improve child happiness. Conversely, over- parenting is statistically negatively significant in the emotionally healthy development of young children.
