[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP that while your daughter may be more sensitive or more of a perfectionist than average, I don't see any reason to go to a psychiatrist. She's just towards that end of the spectrum .. not worse or better ... just the way she is. I would really avoid making this into an issue. My older son, 7.5yo, is on the more sensitive/expressive end emotionally. He still tends to make a big deal out of things, but I don't emotionally mirror him and I don't reprimand him for it. Basically, I acknowledge what is going on but I don't feed into any tears or anxiety. FWIW, some people have a similar tendency toward overactive blushing. It's a physiological thing and doesn't mean there's actually anything WRONG with them. [/quote]
