ABSTRACT

Most households include both introverts and extroverts, including my own. Needless to say, differences in temperament can intensify sibling rivalries. This next story is taken from a conversation that occurred during a parenting workshop several years ago. In that training, parents and their children worked together to decipher the ways in which extroversion and introversion impacted their family. As with the other stories, the names and identifying information have been changed to respect the privacy of the training participants.
