Course Description:
Identifying temperament traits in our children and family members can bring understanding about behaviour and help parents develop strategies to accommodate a wide variety of temperament traits. What a relief for a parent who feels responsible for their child’s reaction to the world!
The tools in this course will help you understand your child’s temperament as well as your own and guide you to some coping strategies if you or your child is on the extreme range of a trait. This e-learning course will help you understand the root of your child’s emotions and behaviours. Knowing yours and your child’s temperamental tendencies will offer you some interesting insight into your child and yourself.
