Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The chapter's discussion emphasizes that a toddler's basic temperament is largely determined by genetics and is relatively stable throughout their life. While environmental factors can influence a child's behavior, they cannot completely alter their basic temperament. Discipline strategies should be tailored to a child's unique temperament rather than simply trying to "fix" problem behaviors.
