[quote=Anonymous]Our six year old daughter seems abnormality stressed by competition. (What she calls winning and losing games) I don't feel we've put any amount of pressure on her. Nor, do I think we've sheltered her in any specific way from the concepts of good winners and good losers. We play board games at home, for example. However, it's to the point where she got agitated talking about a few activities for her birthday party because she didn't want games with winners, she is getting stressed about PE class, and she is getting resistant to doing any of the after school, very low key sports activities. She loves to draw, and she almost started crying last month when I suggested she do a drawing for a local kids art competition. As long as she's active, I don't particularly care if she is into sports, but I feel like her extremely stressed reaction to being in a competitive situation isn't good. Does anyone have any similar issue with their kid?[/quote]
