Reviewed by Gildas Garrec, CBT practitioner
Good morning,
This test attends to what a parent notices of their child's emotional life: recognizing what is felt and having a word for it, coming back down when the feeling runs high, saying it rather than being subjected to it, and doing something with anger. These acquisitions do not arrive together in development. The report situates the one that is still missing.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 63 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book Adolescence in Crisis, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
How Does My Child Handle Their Emotions? — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test attends to what a parent notices of their child's emotional life: naming what is felt, coming back down, saying it, doing something with anger. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): an interpretation of its 5 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 14 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This test covers mood, anger, frustration, speaking your mind, what others think, reassurance, support, withdrawal, the body, violence, remorse, relief and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Mood If your child switches quickly from one emotion to another without transition. If your child stays roughly stable even when upset. Anger If your child has anger outbursts that spiral (screaming, hitting, throwing objects). If your child can express anger without shouting or hitting. Frustration If your child struggles to accept a "no." If your child tolerates frustration without immediately getting angry. Speaking your mind If your child keeps everything to themselves without expressing what they feel. If your child can express disagreement without aggression. What others think If your child is afraid to show their emotions in front of others. If your child expresses emotions differently depending on who is present (family, peers, teachers). Reassurance If your child needs an adult's help to calm down. If your child manages to reassure themselves in certain situations. Support If your child needs help identifying what they are feeling. If your child can ask for comfort when they need it. Withdrawal If your child withdraws when going through a difficult emotion. If your child comes to talk to you when something upsets them. The body If your child expresses emotions through their body rather than words (fidgeting, tension). If your child identifies the physical sensations linked to their emotions (racing heart, sweaty hands). Violence If your child becomes physically aggressive when angry. If your child can negotiate or offer a solution when they don't get what they want. Remorse If your child holds onto resentment long after an angry episode. If your child apologizes or comes back to you after an angry moment. Relief If your child struggles to calm down after an argument or conflict. If your child can relax when offered age-appropriate strategies. Readiness to change If what you observe in your child regarding how they handle their emotions has a real impact on your family life. If you believe you are capable of supporting your child through this change.
