DS is is four, seems to be sufferign a crisis of confidence. Whenever we try something new with him like catching a ball, writing his name etc. he seems to want to give up when when he makes a mistake. Sometimes he makes mistakes etc on purpose so he can say 'i cant do it' and has an excuse to give up.
I dont know how hard i should push him to continue because he seems to get quite angry and upset sometimes.
Anybody else with a similar experience?
