Do's and Don'ts of Parenting Choleric Children

Ever feel like your kid is constantly pushing back, questioning everything, and turning even the smallest request into a negotiation? You might just have a choleric child on your hands. But before you throw up your hands in frustration, let’s talk about what that actually means.

Choleric kids are wired for leadership. They thrive on efficiency, decisiveness, and challenge. They don’t just want to follow orders—they want to know why, and if the reason isn’t good enough, they’ll find a better way. That’s not defiance. That’s raw leadership potential. But if you don’t know how to work with that temperament, parenting can feel like a never-ending power struggle.

In this episode, we break down the do’s and don’ts of raising a choleric child. How do you guide them without crushing their will? How do you discipline without triggering full-scale rebellion? And how do you channel that intensity into something that serves them—and your whole family—well?

This isn’t just about parenting. If you’re a teacher, coach, or mentor, this episode will help you understand how to bring out the best in the choleric child while keeping your own sanity intact.

Listen in, take notes, and get ready to lead your strong-willed child like a pro.
