Pills for Happiness

Teacher: Kids, what are some things you have that make you happy? Kid 1: I have my family to make me happy. Kid 2: I have my friends to make me happy. Teacher: What about you, Sean? Sean: I have to take pills to make me happy...

Explanation

Experiment

The joke plays on the unexpected and slightly morbid twist in Sean's response. The other kids talk about typical sources of happiness, but Sean's answer implies he's reliant on medication for happiness, which is a dark and sad idea compared to family and friends. It's a bit of a downer, but also darkly funny in its unexpected nature.
