Do you know your child's personality type?

Do you know your child's personality type?Do you know your child's personality type?

It becomes very important for you to figure out the kind of personality your child has so that you can mould them in a way that is required.

Sending your kids to a high-end school for studies or giving them a top-class atmosphere is not enough. Every child is different with different interests. Some are naughty while others are lost in their own world without talking much with people around.

In this day and age, it becomes very important for you to figure out the kind of personality your child has so that you can mould them in a way that is required.

Here is how you can find out about your child’s personality type.

#1. Optimistic/ Sanguine

If your child makes friends within few minutes at a new place or attracts people around by cracking numerous jokes, he has a sanguine personality. Optimistic children always seem very energetic and entertaining. They can be awake till 2 am in the night even if they have school next morning. Having this kind of personality also makes your kid have his ups and downs.

  • If they are unhappy or dissatisfied with any of your advice, they will tell that on your face immediately. Just like Delhi weather, these kids have their extremes.
  • If they are happy, they will make you feel out of the world and if they are sad, you can’t even dare to talk to them for days.
  • To help these kids utilize their energy and keep their mood intact, you need to be very patient and try to keep them busy with something or the other.

#2. Hot-tempered/ Choleric

Choleric temperament is not very difficult to find out from the kid’s behaviour. These types of toddlers have strong reactions to the negative things. If somebody hurts their feelings, they keep it in their head for a long time. They can be great leaders, as they always know what they are talking about.

  • Cholerics will always have somebody who they always look up to and they stick to their words. Since they have a capacity to become a natural leader, parents should always encourage them in all fields such as sports, politics, bollywood or priests.
  • You need to also teach your hot-tempered child humility and compassion so that they don’t become tyrants.
  • One should also make them realize that they can’t rule the world with their high powers. It’s always better to give them enough time and information about a new place where you are taking them next.

#3. Melancholic/ detailed

If your children are stressed about everything in life and don’t smile very easily, they are melancholic. Other kids usually get along well with melancholic children because these are extremely trustworthy and they can go beyond their limits to help their friends or relatives. They are also very responsible and caring and sometimes they become so overwhelmed with your love. They are extremely hard working and don’t give up until their efforts are not being appreciated.

  • They also can’t stand people who cheat and or badmouth them on their back.
  • Parents need to become extremely positive and happy to bring lightness to a melancholic child and try to decrease the burden from your child.
  • Making your children laugh at least once a day become all the more important in this case. Adding sweets to your child’s diet may also cheer them up. 

#4. Phlegmatic/ composed

Finding out that your child is phlegmatic can be easy. You will often see them living in their own comfort zone by following a certain daily routine. It's not as if they don’t like celebrations or parties but its just that it doesn’t make them feel happy if a close relative comes into their life nor make them feel sad if the same person goes out forever. A strong metabolic system in phlegmatic child makes him digest anything from a cup of tea of knowledge.

  • They have their set patterns in life, which never make them complain even if somebody tries to hurt their feelings. Though if you keep pricking them for something, they can blast like a bomb that should be taken into consideration very seriously.
  • This kind of a child loves to think deeply, read book, play board games rather than outdoor sports, loves food or taking a nap.
  • As a parent, you need to give them advance notice of everything if you don’t want them to panic.
  • While other kids might take your instructions lightly, phlegmatic kids make sure that they are ready at the exact time you have asked them to.
  • You may also find it easy to deal with them as they only keep one task at hand before moving to another.
