[quote=Anonymous]OP here -- thank you for your comments. I kind of see the perfectionist mindset. The thing that doesn't make sense is that she doesn't want to take her time and make her work "perfect," she just doesn't want anyone to tell her that she has done something wrong or something needs to be different. And even if I don't tell her it needs a change, but she thinks she can't do it right, then she gets upset. She has never, ever, liked trying new things (like I said, she wouldn't walk step off the sidewalk onto the grass when she was little, she would have a hard time with long pants when she was used to wearing shorts all summer, etc.) But, I'm much relieved to know that other kids say similar things at this age.
