I love this advice. But I want to answer one more question you might be wondering about: What if your child is subject to harsh, really harsh, experiences outside your control? I asked this question of Jay Belsky, a leading proponent of orchid theory, a psychology professor, and child care expert at the University of London. Using divorce as an example, he told me that even orchid children can withstand some adversity if it’s managed properly. Orchid kids will be disrupted more than others by divorce, he told me. “If the parents squabble a lot, and put their kid in the middle, then watch out — this is the kid who will succumb.” But if the divorcing parents get along, if they provide their child with the other psychological nutrients he needs, then even an orchid child can do just fine. Indeed, the parents of high-reactive children are very lucky, Belsky told me. “The time and effort they invest will actually make a difference. Instead of seeing these kids as vulnerable to adversity, parents should see them as malleable — for worse, but also for better.” THE POWER OF INTROVERTS | 31
PUBLIC SPEAKING FOR INTROVERTS I have a really complicated relationship to public speaking. The mere prospect of giving a lecture used to make me want to throw up. Literally. Once during law school, I got so nervous that I had to bolt for the restroom on the way to class. (I can’t believe I’m admitting this to the entire blogosphere.) But I’ve come a long way since then. These days, much to my own astonishment, I have a career as a professional public speaker! It took me a while to get there. When I first started, I struggled a lot with following question: If public speaking requires brio and dynamism, and if I am naturally soft-spoken, then how can I be an effective speaker — and still be my authentic self ?
