Parenting Using MBTI

Parenting Using MBTI

Parenting is the most difficult job on earth. Think I’m kidding? Just ask a parent. It is fraught with challenges starting from birth. What do you feed the child? The right diaper? Why is the baby crying? Then it gets more complicated as the child grows into a teenager, diving into social life and social media. Gratefully, personality types can aid in deciphering the maze of parenthood by knowing the personality type of the parent and of course, the personality type of the child.
