[quote=Anonymous]Could I suggest that she has a fear of failure? What you are describing generally sounds like my kids until we began to really talk about why they aren't doing stuff. ( It absolutely was the fear of peer rejection for clubs, not making the team for sports, not getting an A or being the smartest in a class. I see this in my college students in class all the time. They won't start a paper/project because they are in control. Rather than submitting something that could possibly be critiqued as "less than." Things you say she is interested in (which means she is likely not depressed) are things that are generally not related to success or failure. [/quote]
