[quote=Anonymous]Any resources or referrals appreciated. Any time kid makes a mistake while trying to read or play her instrument lately it’s an immediate tantrum about having made a mistake. We’re trying to reassure her that making mistakes is normal and how she learns and that all we care about is that she’s trying. We’re not pushing. She wanted to play the instrument and pick up books. I told her we could put the instrument away for a while and that I would just read and that turned into more tears because she really wants to read and play but she just wants to do it perfectly. I’m at a loss. I don’t know what to do. I am very Type A and anxious but have been very mindful not to pass this down. Apparently I haven’t been successful. Is there someone I can have her talk to?
