Our spirited kids are generally "more," and quite often very misunderstood.

Using Kurcinka's terms, the nine spirited child traits are:
Intensity
Persistence
Sensitivity
Perceptiveness
Adaptability
Regularity
Energy
First Reaction
Mood

We've known our kids were "different" from the very beginning. Every day, every hour can be a challenge.
Let's start a community in the Portland area to support one another. We can let our kiddos play and be themselves without the parenting judgements of others.
We can offer advice, a shoulder when we need one, books, or something as simple as "I understand."
