LETTER OF IDENTITY

DETERMINING YOUR CHILD PERSONALITY TYPE

 Every child is GIFT

As a Child, many would say I'm bold and beautiful, but I will say I'M A GIFT. Yeah! The Quest for my existence wasn't a mistake I was intentionally created. 

So, the question is how do you treat this gift you are given? Hold that thought.

Though some gift comes with a user manual. In my case, I am a CASESTUDY 😅.

Everyone in planet earth has their unique personality 

I have a personality and tons of friends with different personalities.  

I am what you'd call a PROTAGONIST. I'm an inspiring optimist and readily take actions to do what I feel is right. I'm extrovert, intuitive, very imaginative and curious. They say curiosity kills the cat but in my case my life was at stake 😅. At age 4, I had a regrettable admiration for a candle. I beheld the golden yellow and a stunning flame of a candle it was so irresistible, its beauty called on me. On touching, Ouch! The burnt pains came in immediately, my curiosity was satisfied. 

Amongst my tons of friends with different personalities, I have a friend I fondly call "Best Cousin". Many are born leaders but Maurice, is a spitting image of the COMMANDER personality type. This personality type can be seen from the way children apply the values of kindness through their actions as they become authoritative and volunteer to be a group leader anywhere they find themselves.

Vida is another friend with LOGICIAN personality type. A logician personality type pride themselves of their unique perspective and vigorous intellect. This type of personality type is quite rare and they often have a Sherlock Holmes life knack for spotting discrepancies in other words, it’s a bad idea to lie to them.

Emmanuel possess the ARCHITECT personality type. Architect personality type is an introverted, intuitive, thinking and judging. They question everything they see. As a parent, at a point you would want to give up on endless question your child asks. they prefer to surround themselves with people who share their values and priorities.

Blessed possess a DEBATER kind of personality; this personality type is known to be bold and creative. Deconstructing and rebuilding ideas with great mental agility, pursuing their goals vigorously despite any resistance they might encounter. They are quick-witted and audacious never afraid to disagree with the status quo.

Samuel depicts ADVOCATE; personality type. they tend to approach life with deep thoughtfulness and imagination. Their inner vision, personal values, and a quite principled version of humanism guide them in all things. They feel fulfilled when someone else’s life changes for the better.

Steve exhibits MEDIATOR; personality type. They tend to be quiet, openminded and imaginative and they apply a caring and creative approach to everything they do. They are ever ready in settling dispute and give proper guidance.

Ernest possess CAMPAINGNER personality type. They tend to embrace big ideas and actions that reflects their sense of hope and goodwill towards others. They give energetic support to your ideas and help sort solutions and ways in achieving targets. 

  

Henry exhibits DEFENDERS personality type. in their ways, they tend to make the world a better place. They are always careful with details being very strategic and optimistic. Despite their reserve, they tend to have well developed people skills and robust social relationships. 

If I was posed the question asked in paragraph 3 I’d simply answer ‘to study their characters and decipher their personality type’.  There and then would you begin to understand your child’s potential.

Remember every child is a GIFT and every child is special treat them as one.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DAD

All Continents,

The World,

Planet Earth.

18TH JUNE, 2023.

Dear Father,

              I don't get as much opportunity as I'd like to celebrate you in a year so I'm grateful for today because I get the opportunity to celebrate you. This is the only day I get asides your birthday to celebrate you. I thought of what I could afford to give to you as a Father's Day gift but realized after everything you have been through for our family, that a heartfelt letter accompanied with a gift would be the best gift and something you'd appreciate.

             You have been the best so far, you moved from admiring my mom to loving her to marrying her to procreating with her to loving the children you created with her to protecting and providing for us. Yes we've had our fights, yes we've said hurtful words to one another but I want you to know that I love you. Thank you for still loving me, protecting me and providing for me despite the storms and chaos. Every single day I go to you for an advice, you've always listened and given me the best advice. You've unconsciously become a role model to me over the years, by not just being a father but a friend, leader, chef, protector, mentor, ATM 😉 and best friend.

           You've lead by example over the years. Today I've learnt that a blessing from you is more powerful and greater than a blessing from others. But I want you to know that you are one of the greatest if not the greatest blessings I've received from God. I'm grateful and thankful for all you do for me. I pray that God bless you with more wisdom, long life, money, good health, happiness, peace and favour. Happy Father's Day Daddy!! God bless you!! I love you Daddy!! Cheers to more years of celebrating you 🍾🥂🍻🥂.

Yours Lovingly,

Tete, Bee

MY MIND IS BEAUTIFUL

 

Hello!!

I am a child

I am a special gift 😊

I am supernatural and my mind is paradise.

Permit me to take you on a little journey to give you an idea on how my mind works.

Are you ready??

Come on let's go!

My mind is paradise as I had earlier mentioned, it works in a uniquely creative way. Do you know that for the first six years of my stay on earth, my brain acts like a sponge??  Yes you read that right, my brain acts like a sponge as it's effortlessly and constantly soaking up huge amount of information from my environment. This is what Maria Montessori referred to as the absorbent mind.

The way I relate with my environment is completely different from the way you adults relate with your environment, I absorb it. I don't just remember the things I see or hear, it forms part of my soul. The development that occurs in the first six years of my life are very important, as 85% of my core brain structure develops by the time I am five years old and I would have to build on this core foundation for the rest of my life. So please be careful of the information you feed to me during this period.

At birth, the average baby’s brain is about a quarter of the size of the average adult brain. Incredibly, it doubles in size in the first year. It keeps growing to about 80% of adult size by age 3 and 90% – nearly full grown – by age 5. The brain is the command center of the human body. A newborn baby has all of the brain cells (neurons) they’ll have for the rest of their life, but it’s the connections between these cells that really make the brain work. Brain connections enable people to move, think, communicate and do just about everything. Brain development builds on itself, as connections eventually link with each other in more complex ways. The early years are the best opportunity for a child’s brain to develop the connections they need to be healthy, capable, successful adults. The connections needed for many important, higher-level abilities like motivation, self-regulation, problem solving and communication are formed in these early years – or not formed. My daily experiences determine which brain connections develop and which will last for a lifetime. 

Understanding how my mind works is not as complex as you think it is, here are some few tips to understanding my mind, improving our relationship and helping me grow into an amazing adult; 

1. When I speak, listen to me without interrupting me as I might still be learning how to speak or I can't express myself properly yet.

2. Give me your undivided attention and always look me in the eye when talking or listening to me as you will be able to tell what I want or how I feel.

3. Think like me; when having a conversation with me, try not to let your adulthood take control. Don't think or speak like an adult, come down to my level because if you do not, it'll be frustrating for both of us to communicate.

4. Don't dodge any of the questions I ask, always answer them. I ask out of curiosity and because I trust you to give me an answer.

5. Pay attention to my imagination; help me become a better person by exposing me to fun and innovative things. Create the right environment for me to feed off and feed me the right kind of information as I have an absorbent mind.

6. Focus on my creations; I am creative and my artwork always expresses/represent my feelings.

7. Connect with me physically, verbally, spiritually and emotionally; become my favourite person, best friend, mentor and protector.

Let me stop here, I wish I could go on but I had promised to take you on a short journey not a long one but they're several children psychologist around the world that can help you understand more about my mind and brain development. I'm glad I've been able to give you a little insight about how my mind works and how you can understand me better. Cheers to a better relationship between us beloved parents and guardian. 

I love you!

WHO IS A CHILD?

The term "CHILD" varies due to the perspective of the user. It is also a counterpart of parent: adults are the children of their parents despite their maturation beyond infancy; for example John, aged 46, is the CHILD of Thomas, aged 73". 

There's this common sentence used In African Homes; Precisely my home, My mom would always yell whenever she's stressed by any of her CHILD "I'm Somebody's CHILD too, I didn't kill my parent with stress so you won't kill me". 

Legal definition of the term "CHILD" ; 

The Convention on the Rights of the CHILD defines a CHILD as "every human being below the age of 18 years unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier".

In the biological sciences, a CHILD is usually defined as a person between birth and puberty,or between the developmental period of infancy and puberty.

Some English definitions of the word CHILD include the fetus (sometimes termed the unborn). In many cultures, a CHILD is considered an adult after undergoing a rite of passage, which may or may not correspond to the time of puberty. 

Children tend to posses these characters: 

Creativity

Patience

Curiosity

Honesty

Courage

Confidence

Resilience

Social skills

Respect

Discipline

Learning

Kindness

Compassion

Self-control

Assertiveness

Empathy

Aggression

Resourcefulness, etc 

So i'd put it to you if you possess any of these characteristics which very unavoidable, you are a CHILD. 

Remember every CHILD is a Gift treat them as One.
