All parents can raise happy, healthy, emotionally rich children. But many struggle along the way.
In my 20 years of experience as a child psychologist, I have found that if parents are unfamiliar with their child’s temperament and unique traits, they cannot respect and celebrate their true selves.
There are six types of most extraordinarily gifted children. Your child may be one she is more than the other or it may be a mixture of all. Knowing their type strengthens their relationship with each other and helps them understand themselves better.
Anxious Exploders are often annoying, annoying, and trivial provoked.
Their beauty is that they are very sensitive and porous. But this means they tend to absorb anxiety around them. ?they explode!?
Parenting Tips: Keep your feet on the ground and stay calm. Being reactive with either anger or anxiety can set off a tsunami of emotions.
Praise their ability to process their environment, but teach them to create the solace they need: “When you’re nervous, close your eyes and repeat to yourself, ‘I am I’m safe, I’m home, and I’m fine.”
Hyperactive explorers cannot sit still and will not stay where they were last placed.
These children are often viewed as “troublesome” by parents and teachers because they can be overwhelmingly active in mind and body. But their superpower is that they are incredibly curious and enthusiastic.
Parenting Tips: Active explorers need to be respected rather than shamed for their passionate spirit.
Show unconditional acceptance so they can accept themselves in a world that may shun them repeatedly.
The Overpleaser is like butter, soft and pliable, easy to mold and mold, making it the perfect prey for parents with a strong need for control.
They fill gaps, take on chores, and earn gold stars. However, because they want to help, they take on excessive parental responsibilities and become “parental” adults in the home.
Parenting Tips: Please show me how to respect them and protect their boundaries.
Remind them that their needs come first.
Dreamer-withdrawn children tend to be shy and introverted and can struggle with social and conversational skills.
You can often find yourself staring into space, scribbling in a notebook, or spending time alone that makes you wonder if you’re home.
Parenting Tips: Society may try to tell them that they should be the opposite, that they should be more extroverted.
Give them reassurance and emphasize their strengths.
A rebel has the will of an ox. They won’t do it until they’re sure it’s what they want.
I know how challenging these kids are. My daughter, Maia, is a rebel, she is so confident that she is not afraid of authority.
Parenting Tips: These kids need to respect their resolve.
Release Control and Judgment: “I love your ability to follow your voice and not be swayed by public opinion.
These kids are always smiling and in a good mood. They are not picky, demanding, bossy people.
The only downside is that it seems too relaxed and unmotivated. As a result, some parents may feel they are not ambitious enough.
Parenting Tips: What parents don’t realize is that carefree children are actually gurus living in the present.
Applaud their positive approach to the world.
