The Perfectionist Child: A Warm, Practical Guide to Helping Your Child Embrace Imperfection

Does your child crumble at the slightest mistake? Does homework become a battle because the worksheet isn't 'just right'? You're not alone, and there is a way forward. This book helps you understand what drives your perfectionist child's behavior—often a mix of temperament, anxiety, and deeply held beliefs about worth—and gives you clear, compassionate strategies to ease their internal pressure. You'll learn how to shift the focus from flawless outcomes to effort and growth, how to respond when mistakes trigger big feelings, and how to model self-acceptance in your own life. Whether your child is a toddler who melts down over a wobbly tower or a teen who stays up all night rewriting an essay, you'll find practical scripts, routines, and age-by-age advice that fit your real life. No judgment, no guilt—just warmth and tools that work. Part of The Everyday Parenting Library.
