Three factors shape every child: temperament, development, and environment. The articles here are sorted by those three. Start with whichever one sounds most like the child you are thinking of.

Temperament

Temperament

The way a child is wired from birth, and why two children can meet the same moment in completely different ways.

Environment

Environment

The nurture side: the world a child grows up in, and what parents and communities can change.
