Temperament is an inherent part of a childâs character and can be shaped but not changed. Understanding and learning about different temperaments is important because it affects you as a parent, your child, and the relationship between you. Temperament shapes responses and reactions â âhowâ a child does something, not what they do. It is a childâs behavioral style. Temperament is not personality, as personality addresses more of the âwhyâ of behavior. Many researchers feel that children are born with their natural style of interacting with or reacting to people, places, and things â their temperament.
