The
Joys and Challenges of Raising ISFPs:
They
are affectionate, caring, and loyal, but are also extremely
sensitive and are easily hurt or rejected. While they are observant,
quiet, and gentle, they tend not to see the implications of
their actions and may become overwhelmed with large tasks.
What
works with ISFPs:
-
hold
and snuggle them a lot; speak to them with a soft and gentle
voice; give your full attention when they speak to you
-
support
their feelings and allow them to express themselves in their
own time and style
-
model
assertiveness and create an atmosphere where they are safe
to practice these budding skills
Parents of ISFPs: they'll know you really love them when
you...
buy them clothing made of silk, velvet, or velour, or bring
home a pet.
This
is just the tip of the iceberg. To really understand your ISFP
child - from preschool through adolescence - and to learn the
