[quote=Anonymous]I have one kid who is a people pleaser and one who is very strong-willed and stubborn. They both have things to learn -- the people pleaser should learn to stand up for herself and not be a doormat, and the strong-willed one needs to learn to compromise and pick his battles. I don't think it's necessarily true that being strong willed will serve them well as adults. As an adult you can't just fight to get your way all the time either. You're not going to do well in relationships like that and not in most careers either (unless your job is dictator). Hopefully these traits moderate over time. [/quote]
