  I notice that grades are falling because of relationship issues (parents being the usual prime enemy and girlfriend boy friend factors), low self esteem, anger management and depression issues and not because kids aren't smarter or even 'Psychology smart'
  I give my students this website and viola! wonders have happened-
  
  www.pursuit-of-happiness.org
  
  optimism and happiness does something to us on an every day basis and students find renewed faith in themselves. It helps a great deal when the teacher exemplifies positivity and optimism and shows the students that they really matter and that you believe they can do better
  
  
  The complete opposite of the disease model, it tells people what went 'right' over the millennia for mankind to have come thus far.
  
  Positive Psychology is the scientific study of the strengths that enable individuals and communities to thrive. The field is founded on the belief that people want to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives, to cultivate what is best within themselves, and to enhance their experiences of love, work, and play.
