[quote=Anonymous] I think it's personality. I have three kids and one has been much more "particular" than the other two from the get-go. We try to manage it, similar to what you're saying, picking battles. I think it's gotten a little easier as he's gotten older (he's 7 now) because he has gotten more independent and better able to do things himself to his liking. He's also gotten better about asking politely and thinking ahead. But there are still occasionally tantrums over things that seem ridiculously minor to me. I do try to remember that he is just as particular and demanding of himself as he is of others, he tends to be a perfectionist, so it's not a power play/manipulation, but just the way he is. [/quote]
