Personality is the total of a person’s behaviour which encompasses speech, dressing, interaction with people, and all sorts of mannerisms. Normal personality develops where there is a conducive and friendly environment especially during and after weaning a child. Such a person easily interacts with people with a lot of respect. An abnormal personality is a situation whereby a person’s behaviour is unacceptable to the people around him or her.
Some of the factors that are responsible for the personality types seen in school children are:
Emotional Development
A child that is given parental love, affection, warmth comfort, and security will develop into a personality that will be seen as friendly, amiable, and acceptable.
On the other hand, a child that lacks the above qualities while growing up will turn to be aggressive, intolerant, quarrelsome, jealous, and wicked.
Growth Pattern
During the critical period of human growth, usually before weaning, a child needs enough food that is rich in protein to enhance general growth. Failure to do this will result in damaging consequences on the personality of the child.
Lack of food leads to loss of energy which exposes the child to diseases, stealing, growth retardation. A hungry person they say is an angry person. Such a child grows up with an aggressive, wicked personality and this will affect his interaction with people around him.
Malnutrition affects the development of the brain and proper intellectual functioning. Failure to develop intellectual skills results in poor personality development. This often leads to learning disabilities in children, slow reading, cognitive deficiency, etc.
Such children become withdrawn, unintelligent, unsociable, shy, etc.
Language Development
Language development 8s a crucial factor of personality development. Encouraging a child to speak or talk influences his language development which invariably enables such a child to assert himself or herself as a person in any situation.
Language can act as a catalyst for personality development through the development of skills to accomplish certain tasks and to demand certain rights as he or she becomes bold in interacting with people.
One of the commendations given to Shining Stars Schools during the visit of the Ministry of Education when the officers interacted with our pupils is that our children are bold in expressing themselves.
In conclusion, allowing our children to freely express themselves with politeness helps in developing normal personalities in them. Most of us would recollect that in our growing years, our parents killed our morale and self-esteem in the way they shouted and yelled at us at every attempt to express our feelings. The 21st-century child does not need these kinds of treatments if we must build children who have normal and well-developed personalities.
