It is important to keep a happy and light mood at home. If there is always an aura of tension and stress shrouded in your house then it can affect a child and can make them sad and depressed.
Seeing a child depressed is the last thing any parent wants to see. If any negative situation is going on in a house and it is affecting a child then a parent or a sibling can change the mood of the picture by just cracking a simple joke.
Kids usually likes to be around people who makes them laugh and happy, they are looking for moments where they could laugh it all out. According to Center for Parenting Education, laughter and humor can be very healing, calming and satisfying parts of life.
Humor does not only makes a person laugh but it is also a good way to communicate and to get close with someone because one does not just joke around with everyone. According to Monica Swanson post, laughter makes a family better. She says that life is hard but we all need to survive it somehow and the best way to do it is by doing it happily.
Sarcasm and teasing is the best way to laugh it all out. At times teasing can be negative, when it is done all the time you get annoyed by it. For example, when a child provokes, irritates or annoys the hell out of the parent — that is when it gets negative.
It is good for a child if they learn to laugh at their own things, they should also be able to laugh at their own pain so that when someone cracks a joke on them, they do not feel bad and do not take it negatively. After all, the use of humor is good for every family.
