I was confused about what is considered systemising in the context of parents. I would imagine your husband (if I recall is an INTP). I would assume most INFJs are balanced, while INTPs tend to be systemising. But a balanced person could still out systemise a person who is a pure systemiser.

I think if the parents do well on analytical linear problem solving tests (like the IQ or SAT), I think balanced people would also count as systemisers according to Cohen's definitions, but not completely sure. I made my gf read this article and told her "WE CAN NEVER HAVE KIDS" (as a joke), she didn't find it funny.
