My question for this year is: Why are some young children unwilling to open up to their environment while others rush head first into creating new relationships?
I first became interested in this question when I visited my mom's work at the beginning of the year. She is a teacher and was having an open house at her school for the new kids to come in and meet their teachers. I noticed that lots of kids were shy, yet others were extremely friendly and outgoing. When a mom asked her son to say hi to his new teacher, he immediately jumped into his mom's arms crying "Mom! I'm scared!" I wonder about what types of family lifestyles or influences make some children naturally more friendly than others.
