Child Behavior Guidance

What is normal behavior in children? The answer to this question depends on the child's age, personality, and physical and emotional development. At times a child's behavior may be a problem if it doesn't match the expectations of the adult or if it is disruptive. How we define normal or "good" behavior is usually determined by whether it's socially, culturally and developmentally appropriate. Knowing what to expect from your child at each age will help you decide whether his or her behavior is normal.
