Is Your Child Easy or Difficult to Manage?

Take the quiz below to find out how difficult your child is to manage. This is not an absolute predictor but it can give you an indication. It applies best to children between three and twelve. Answer on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the lowest score and 10 the highest

    1.) My child is agreeable when I ask him/her to do something the first or second time

    2.) My child accepts direction easily, doesn't mind being told what to do.

    3.) If I tell my child to stop doing something he/she shouldn't be doing, I usually don't have a problem with him/her again after that

    4.) When my child is disappointed about something, after he/she doesn't get his/her way, he/she will usually calm down after about fifteen minutes.

    5.) When my child was an infant he/she was easy to soothe and keep happy.

    6.) When my child gets angry, he/she expresses anger appropriately. He/she never curses at me, yells or hits me

    7.) My child rarely hits, pushes, or bites other children in a group.

    8.) My child is good with things like taking turns, sharing and cooperating in a group

    9.) My child seems to understand when he/she has behaved poorly and feels sorry about it later on

    10.) My child describes himself/herself in positive terms (i.e., "I am a good boy or girl.")


    Most parents will score their children between 60 and 80. If you find yourself scoring your child below forty, then your child is probably more difficult than most children. Developing excellent parenting skills will be necessary to assist you. If you score your child higher than 80, then your child is probably easier than most.
