Perfectionism and Gifted Children

During her 35 year career, Callard-Szulgit has found perfectionism to be the #1 social-emotional trait of gifted children. She has helped hundreds of students recover from its harmful effects. Perfectionism and Gifted Children provides insight into perfectionism, discussing why so many gifted children are perfectionists while providing common sense solutions to this problem. This book will be an immense help to parents and teachers of gifted children and gifted children themselves.
