A child's personality has several components:

Temperament, Environment, and Character.

Temperament is the set of genetically determined traits that determine the child's approach to the world and how the child learns about the world.

A second component of personality comes from adaptive patterns related to a child's specific Environment. IHigh-Quality Parenting plays a critical role in the development of a child's personality.

Character—The set of emotional, cognitive, and behavioral patterns learned from experience that determines how a person thinks, feels, and behaves.

HAPPY PARENTING!!!!!

  • Parents who are responsive but not at all demanding
    are
    permissive.
  • Parents who are equally responsive and demanding
    are
    authoritative.
  • Parents who are demanding but not very responsive
    are
    autocratic.
  • Parents who are neither demanding nor responsive
    are
    unengaged.
