The 'child' is a reflection of emotional behaviour," says Chapman. Although it can be creative or act in an adapted fashion, doing what is expected of it, it can also lash out with temper tantrums. "The 'child' is often triggered when a person can't cope or wants help. The person can't express it in any other way so they seek attention or take out their frustration or insecurity on somebody who's around them." The ultimate aim, he adds, should be to communicate as an adult. Easier said than done, but with a little bit of effort we could be "transacting" or communicating more usefully.

"The 'adult' ego state is logical and good at deciding which behaviour is most effective. It takes information from the outside world, such as who is talking to us and how," says Julie Hay, chief executive of Watford-based AD International. "The 'adult' monitors our reactions and checks whether these seem relevant."

The training consultancy runs TA courses in a range of organisations from the Department of Health to Sainsbury's. Hay agrees that organisations are fertile ground for less grown-up relationships, with bosses often assuming the role of parent and subordinates playing the child. "We do actually go around unwittingly recreating previous relationships. We are quite likely to relate to a manager as if they are a teacher or one of our older relatives as if we were little," she says. So when your boss harshly criticises you - a 'critical and controlling parent' - and you rush out of the office in tears, at least now you know why.

I Think You Are Fine. Myself I like Crayons And Coloring Books And I Am 43 Years Old!!!

Answer 6

ha, give me play dough, a stuffed animal, or anything, and i am happy for hours. My sister (10), my 11, 14, 16 year old cousins, and I play with my 15 months old cousins toys for hours.

Answer 7

haha! those things are so cool but i get bored too easily to play with any one toy for too long but i've spent upto like an hour playing with my 10 month old sons rattle, kids toys r the best cos they remind u of bein young ... ahhhh, a simpler time!

Answer 8

definitely not. Almost every girl I know at my school still loves coloring and whenever my little cousins are over I will play Barbies or whatever with them for hours. No big deal!

Answer 9

Hehe, don't worry, I would probably do the exact same thing! I'm still stuck in the past a little when it comes to entertaining myself. ^^' I still ask for crayons at restuarants and I'm 16, hehe!

Answer 10

I think your mom should be thankful that you are putting your creative skills to work, rather than playing video games.
