Do you have a child that will get upset if he makes a mistake about anything? It can be a pain to watch your child beat himself/herself up.

EditSteps

  1. 1
    Do not get stern with him/her, unless s/he is being dangerous. That will only make your child feel worse about himself/herself. Tell you child about his/her wonderful qualities.
  2. 2
    Tell your child that everybody makes mistakes. It is just part of being human. Nothing they can do or say can help them to achieve perfection.

    Give them a historical back-story. Benjamin Franklin tried doing that. He was a great man who did many great things, but he did not succeed in his attempt to achieve moral perfection.
