Kids & Types {knowing}

I love personality assessments.  I’ve said that before.  Myers-Briggs and all that jazz.

I think I am an ESFJp 
I know that is cheating…  But, I waiver between the J & P.  

And sometimes I waffle on the N & S, too.  I am so confused!  Or maybe just balanced? ;)

My husband is an INTJ.  Totally.

As the kids are growing, 

I often wonder about their unique personalities & try to understand their own little “bents”.

I found this website that has an assessment quiz that you can do for your child.

Of course, I can’t resist that. 

The test is geared toward children 7-12.  I know mine aren’t that old yet.  

But, I gave it a go, for the two oldest.

Some of the questions were tough.  Surely I won’t be able to “get” their personalities completely.

But still, it has value to help me in trying to know them.

Giving it my best shot, I came up with the results of ISJ for my Gillian & IFP for my Peyton.

I can see how the results are fairly accurate, although some things are off.  

(Gillian is quite intuitive.  I may have come up with the completely incorrect letter there - N instead of S?)

I didn't do the test for Moira yet.  I am certain she is an E & probably a P, but not sure of the other letters.

I think she is perhaps a lot like myself.  So, it seems a little easier for me to “make sense” of her & what she does.

I like how the results offer learning style help for the different types. 

Try the test out your kids & tell if you think it seems helpful.

That’s about all I have for the thoughts on knowing your kids.

I was too lazy/shy to ask anyone to write a guest post.

If you have something you want to write as a guest post, let me know.

Check back Friday for my closing thoughts & a continuing blog community idea.
