Abstract

This paper takes a look at Neuroticism as a psychological construct and its implication on character development of children. In doing this the writer assessed the development of children from birth to the period of adolescence. She also examined character development in children and the concept of neuroticism showing its implication on the character of children. It was recommended that adult protection and love (from parents and teachers) could go a long way to enhance proper character development in children. A neurotic child on the other hand should be referred to a counselling psychologist or psychotherapist for assistance.
