[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I do think I was hoping for everyone to say "Oh, that's how all 3 year olds and then it goes away!" but oh well! I do think my DD has some perfectionist tendencies. She will definitely get very adamant about the order or way something has to happen. But it's not all the time and it's not about everything. I definitely think that hunger and tiredness play a big role and I can often address the behavior with a snack or a rest period. But my DH really struggles with it (he is also pretty stubborn and can be a perfectionist) so I'm trying to figure out if I'm going to be navigating between the two of them forever. It hard to encourage DH to be more flexible (he tries, but it's pretty baked in at this point), but I'd love to encourage DD to be a bit more go with the flow, for both her sake and mine! I guess I'll just keep at it and hope for the best![/quote]
