    I suspect that my four year old son is an INFJ. Any advice for the parent of an INFJ kid?

    You can't guess someones type until they are in their late teens. MBTI is not made for children.

    Well you probably can, but the chance of it staying is slim. Our personalities develop as we get older.

    Hell mine's still shifting.

    ^ i think on the personalitypage.com site it described that the NF or SF etc. part of your personality is formed first, and the I/E and J/P distinction comes later. so in that case, he could already be at least an "NF".

    advice for raising an NF kid: engage his imagination and value his feelings C:

    Good call, I had just looked it up. :)

    Here is the link: http://www.personalitypage.com/html/kid_portraits.html

    They don't have the 2-6 years done yet, but 7+ they have. Not saying whether it is correct or not, just providing data. :)

    Are there any body language/visual/speech patterns that are very INFJ? What do you think they are?
