Self-direction is the ability of a child to monitor, play and guide his behavior. Children may not be skilled enough to plan their own behaviors because they tend to explore much with their new world. However, children are cautious of their own acts similar to adults. In fact, some children can manage their own behaviors and use to carry out a plan. They can also monitor their own behaviors through observations and evaluations of their capabilities until they enter the maturity stages where they clearly identify their goals and aspirations in life. Did you hear a child as if talking to themselves while they are asleep? You might think they are just dreaming but that is basically how private speech or self-talk occur. These small private talks are used for these children to monitor their behaviors, understand their feelings and their thoughts in the simplest way possible: words. On the other hand, adults promote private speech or talks when every adult take the role of a mentor, a teacher or a parent. The need to discuss important matter with a young child may not be that effective when discussed in public. Using the private chit chat opportunity would be a great teaching process on the part of the child knowing that the child internalize the conversation in his little ways possible. There may be questions but children just love to ask questions. When children ask some questions, never barricade the chance to educate the child. It is the way they understand and regulate their mental powers to comprehend the complexities of life. When adults or teachers promote private talk they promote self-regulation in children. What happens is that children often use private speech or talks in order to focus their thoughts on certain tasks or challenges, like repeating what was just said as a way of reminding themselves. Such emphasizing words and thoughts actually helps the child to comprehend how complex or how simple a situation may be on his own perspectives. This is in a way initiates his self-regulation learning. Moreover, private speech or self talk also shows a decline of impulsiveness in the part of the child because the child is now talking, planning and thinking before acting. So the way that children solve their problems or obstacles become more practical. This is through the plans of action which the form via private speech. In this situation children take the role of an adult who is planning something before doing it. As adults on the other hand, independent thinking is very common because of the learning curves, processed undertaken during maturity period. There were collaborations, acceptance of ideas, adoption of simple to complex processes and the like. As children mature, the learning process, the gaining of appropriate confidence thus allow them to be self-reliant. This is the reason why adults are capable of handling things right and execute decisions according to their principles. The complexity of life allows the self-talking process diminish gradually. Private or self-talk are on rare opportunities because adults association with other adults happens most of the time. One interesting reality though is that self talk does occur intensively when an adult is faced with a difficult situation or has to execute a major decision in his life. Lastly, researchers have noticed that children stop self talk if the situation or obstacle is easy enough. Self-regulation is presented when there is a challenge at hand. This is so true because any challenge, small or great, promotes brain stimulation thus allowing self-regulation process to take over and private speech also occur at the time of meditation process.
