I was visiting her blog and clicked on this quiz. I was quite interested to know what my "mothering style" was....especially because I had no idea I even had a style.
Turns out I DO HAVE STYLE! Yippee!! And not only am I stylish, I'm chock full of action and adventure too!
Check this out:
Your type is: The “Action Adventure” Mother
“I can’t do anything the same way more than one or two times. Today can’t be like yesterday. Let’s do something different!”
Active and spontaneous, the ESTP mother can turn ordinary life into a fun-filled adventure. She makes dull routines exciting and chores a “let’s do it again” kind of game. Her best times are those spent with her children actively doing, particularly if it’s spur of the moment, innovative, and unconventional.
Full of energy and enthusiasm for living in the moment, the ESTP mother gives her children every opportunity to experience all that life has to offer — touching, seeing, moving, doing ... and meeting people. She’s interested in stimulating their senses so they can take life in and live it.
The ESTP mother is matter-of-fact—“what you see is what you get.” She mothers without hidden agendas and takes life and people as they are. Her children know where they stand. She is able to develop a close relationship with them based on honesty and a strong family orientation as well as sharing a wide variety of experiences.
I like it!
So do you have style? What type are you?

It turns out I have style too!
I am an ESFJ...
"The Happy Together Mother"
Who knew?
I am happy and together!
I am The “Executive” Mother!
“My mind is always going. How can I fine-tune the system to everyone’s advantage?”
Competent and confident in a management role, the ENTJ mother organizes the needs and schedules of family members into a workable family system. Within the system, she provides her children with care-taking, direction, and limits, but she also gives them space to develop their own self-sufficiency and judgment.
This is SO me!!
It says I am/will be a "deep talk mom" The one that has those long heart to heart convos with kids. That seems good but what do I do with them until they learn to talk?
Thought it was pretty true and somehow also funny.
I like yours though.
I know I am not that way but wish I lived next door to a mom like you who could make me more of a fun mom
What a fun mom you are! I bet my kids wish they didn't have the control freak mom...oh well, too bad for them!
I am the "Tuned In" mother which I would agree with. I found your blog thru Mommyetc. Can't wait to read some of your older posts....
This sounds fun.....I will be doing this tomorrow, and I'll get back to you! :)
Woohoo! I'm an Independence Mother. I think that means I laugh when my baby falls down and tell her to learn from her mistakes!
My type is: infp
The “Tuned In” Mother
I'm surprised by how much it actually fits. It's also the same way I was raised so I guess it makes sense why Adia loves her DiDi so much!
I don't agree with my answer, but we all know what kind of parent I am anyway...I don't need a test to tell me.
I am such a "Tender Loving Mama" I sort of wish I was a little more Action and Adventure-I'm sure my kids do too-at least they will some day:) I would agree though, this quiz is spot on.
ok i took it.
pretty sure we are the exact opposite?? but we can still be friends right?
right??
promise to post my results soon!
