Strong Willed Child

According the James Dobson, nearly every family with multiple children has at least one SWC(does that mean you could actually have two?...Oh Dear God, I might need to rethink this 3rd child thing).  The birth order has nothing to do with being strong willed.  These elements of temperament are basically inherited and can occur in the eldest or in the baby.  Most parents know they have a SWC very early.  One-third can tell it at birth.  Two-thirds know by the first birthday, and 92 percent are certain by the third birthday. 

We knew by the time she was 2 months old. 


He also says to remember that anyone can raise the easy kid.  So, we are taking that as a compliment.
