At 8 months, the child was very active and eager to explore. He had a strong attachment to both his mother and father. At 19 months, the child remained very active and social. He followed a consistent daily schedule well and was not easily upset. His temperament has been stable. Having his mother and two older brothers at home full-time provided the child with a strong sense of security that supported his behavior and development.

1. At 8 months of age was your child an “easy”, “slow to warm up”, or
“difficult” baby in terms of Thomas and Chess’s classic temperamental
categories? On what do you base this judgment?
At 8-months he was ready to go. Starting at wake up time, he used to wake
up and make all kinds of sounds. Some how he learnd to climb of his crib,
grab his toys from the toy basket and throw them all around until someone
would come to get him. Id I would not come to get him, he would start
calling me “manamana wowo dada haaaaahaaaaa.” real loud. He was so cute,
sometimes we ingnored him just to listing to his cute sounds
2. How is your child’s attachment relationship to you or your partner
(whoever is the mother) developing? What is happening at the 3-
month and 8-month periods that might affect attachment security
according to Bowl by and Ainsworth, and various research studies?
My baby knew that I was his caregiver and Mother, and that gave hi a sense
of security, He wanted to explored everything around him. His attachment
with his Father was very good when I was not around but when the three of
us were together He use to overflow with happiness. My son was and still is
a good boy. Hard to believe but it is true.
3. Analyze your baby’s temperament in more detail at 19 months than you
did at 8-months. How would you describe your baby in terms of the
five aspects or temperament utilized by the Virtual Child Program
(activity, sociability, emotionality, aggressiveness vs. cooperativeness,
and self-control)? Has your child’s temperament been stable over the
first 18 months? Describe how the concept of goodness of fit applies
to your interactions with your child.
My son is very active since he was borne, at 8-month he was ready to walk
and run around he started his first steps at 9-months by the age of 10-
months he was walking on the treadmill.
He always been a good boy never had problems with him. NO CRYING at
night or during the day, He followed his schedule of daily activities very well.

2. He knew when to eat, sleep and play time was his favorite, specially the game
“Learn with Phonics.”
I remember when I used to give him a bath on the kitchen sink, he used to
laugh and play with the water running out of the facet. He knew when was
time for bathing just with the sound of the running water and looking at my-
self cleaning the sink.
He did not have to adjust to new environments because we were inseparable.
when we were around people he was playful and smiling at anything and
everything. He knew I was there with him and that gave him the sense of
security.
He did not have a chance to cry when he was hungry, I Had a scheduled
mede up for eating and snack times. The only thing he complained right away
was wet diapers, if I would not chance soon enough he would take it off
himself.
4. Have there been any environmental events in your child’s first 2 ½
years that you think might have influenced his or her behavior?
On what do you base your hypothesis?
No, my son’s behavior age 2+ was a little advance for his age because
he had two older brothers to play with, helping him to develop a high sense
of security as well as motor and cognitive stills. I did not work or do any
work out of home until he started pre-school. This closeness develop a
awesome relationship in between the two of us, It makes a difference to
children behavior when they are raised by both parent. I was able to plan his
menu, and teach him daily routines like brush his teeth, shower...etc.
