As a parent, if give yourself what you need, your children will watch you doing that and will give themselves what they need.

I think the shyness one feels in childhood is often overcome with time. There are children who hide behind their parents' legs, but you don't see grown-ups hiding behind people. It just doesn't happen. I mean, not that often. People develop social skills over time.

Opposites attract, and I think temperament is so fundamental that you end up craving someone of the opposite temperament to complete you.
