To use tabs, please use full web version. I believe the goal of parenting is to give my children the skills to become self-sufficient physically, socially, and spiritually. As I try a new technique I ask myself, is this teaching my child how to make good choices? Is she learning to ask God what the correct choice is? My goal is that my girls will be able to fully function as God's servants and become strong leaders for positive change.

Introvert/Follower/Thinker
It will take much more time for this child to warm up to a new environment. Maybe when the child starts to feel at ease, you can introduce this child to one friend in the class so he can feel more comfortable without you.
Strong-Willed/Structure
I've found that children with this combination need to know the plan ahead of time, or they will rebel at the moment their assumed plan changes. Of course, we can't always cater to our kids, but we can smooth the transitions a little to make life easier on everyone.
Creative/Feeling vs. Creative/Thinker
I had the hardest time finding toys for my toddler. Now I see that a Creative/Thinker likes blocks and science, but a Creative/Feeler likes pictures of family or favorite characters and art. Now that she's 4, I'm giving her a camera for her birthday. Thank goodness her aunt is also a Creative/Feeler. I can go off her interests for my daughter.

Nurture by Nature by Tieger
I am so glad to know my daughter's personality type out of 16 explained in this book. It also has stories of other kids with this personality at 3 different ages. My daughter has the same personality type as my sister, which means I need to watch out! But I also can steer her toward similar interests. This book is where the personality categories come from at the top of my blog.
