A Must For Parents!

"One of a Kind" is a marvellous tool for parents. As an MBTI Practitioner, this is my favourite "Type" book for working with children. It very simply and clearly helps you recognize your own preferences and type, as well as childrens.Knowing hereditary life preferences helps you maximize children's potential by developing their strengths, as well as understanding their differences that may challenge you (rather than annoy and irritate you!).My favourite section contains a poignant revelation of an introvert's mental functioning, and page 54 has six Bullet Points to bear in mind if you love an introvert.Besides revealing effective discipline for different types, how to help your child succeed in school, and suggestions for finding a comfortable parenting style, LaVonne Neff also addresses improving family communication and strengthening your marriage. So--DOES it matter what type you marry? Read the book and find out! (Hint--look on pages 85 & 86)
