Of course my answer is to that the BEST way to fight perfectionsim in children is to Make surE that they spend a good deal of their learning time at their 'readiness level.' And of course how you treat them makes some difference as well. Prasing traits that they have some control over is the name of the game, and intercepting those comments on the street if possible.

Good luck,
