Whether you are a parent seeking to raise your children well, an aunt or uncle with nieces and nephews who are dear to you, a neighbor with little ones next door, or a dentist with a vast array of types of young patients, how to best interact with them is a skill you can learn. Utilizing the DISC Styles gives us another framework with the insights to interact wisely.
When we were raising our children, they were vastly different, and the DISC graphs for my husband and I were exact opposites. I’m not sure what the number of possible DISC combinations there were for our family – but it was complicated!
We came across an amazing book, Different Children Different Needs by Charles F. Boyd that gave us those insights we needed as well as practical suggestions.
For the next few weeks, I want to share some of our family’s combinations and what we learned from this book, hoping it will give you more understanding and generate ideas for how you can better interact with the young people in your lives – whether as family, friend or professional.
Lots of insights to come!
QUESTION: Have you ever considered how your DISC Style might automatically relate to young people in a certain way? I’d love to hear your thoughts and observations. Please share in the comment section below.
