However, personality is the character exbhited in adulthood in both puplic and secret places. It is what a person is identify with. For example, the way we walk, talk, eat ,dress and even fight and quarrel. A family that often fight or quarrel, whenever you hear fight or quarrel in that neighborhood, people easily conclude that they are the one because it is what they are identified with (personality).

Children do not behave in the same ways, even if they are born by the same parents , eat the same food, live under the same roof, attend the same school,etc. And hence do not exhibit the same personality at their adulthood.

The personality a child exhibit in adulthood, is as a result of the inability of parents to balance between the reality on ground and gratification need by children.
