[quote=Anonymous]I think two things are very helpful: playing a lot of games with the family (and losing), and having chores assigned to you (and learning the value of hard work). I grew up with a housekeeper, but she wasn't allowed to clean my room or bathroom. My mom said I needed to learn how. I have one kid who is a perfectionist. Playing games consistently as a family has helped him immensely. He realizes that it's okay to lose sometimes and it doesn't mean he's a failure at life. He congratulates the winner. And he doesn't gloat when he wins either. [/quote]
