Temperament is a set of biologically based characteristics that include emotional reactions as well as efforts to modulate or regulate emotions and behaviors. Understanding it can help parents support their child's positive development.
Parents often struggle to apply common parenting advice effectively when dealing with children who have strong emotional reactions or exhibit less self-control, highlighting the need to consider individual temperament.
Certain temperament characteristics such as fearfulness, frustration, impulsivity, and inflexibility can be particularly challenging for parents, necessitating a tailored approach to parenting and emotional support.
Building strong, positive relationships between parents and children while managing their own emotional responses can significantly improve parenting outcomes, especially in the context of varying temperaments.
