rlmom, here's a great resource for you at the SENG website:

http://www.hoagiesgifted.org/For our own family, I'm not sure I could say that I have a plan of action--but we have worked on some of these same issues with our kids. I think you have to know when to encourage kids to try something and when to let it go. There are moments when my kids are more receptive and I try to take advantage of those growth opportunities. I'm sure that's very vague advice
but it depends so much on the child and the personal dynamic you have with your child.
Do you have something specific you are concerned about?
