Temperament, environment, and goodness of fit help explain why a parenting approach works with one and backfires on another, and what parents can do about it.
Thank you, Constance! I had a hard time pairing it back just to parents. I have, essentially, a second article ready to go for teachers, chock-full of info on the amazing impact teachers can have on child development by reducing the cortisol stress load they feel in the mismatched classroom! 🤓Maybe I’ll share that one too (soon). I love that you follow along and read with a 3-part perspective! Thank you for being here 🤗
This is wonderful stuff, Bethany! In fact, I laughed out loud at your family Bible study adventure... or maybe misadventure! 😄 But what a grand object lesson in the foot as temperament and the shoe as environment. I love that!! Thank you for your amazing work to support parents in raising psychosocially healthy children inside a spiritual framework.
I love this perspective - As a parent, grandparent, and teacher.
