[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 541222, member: 11791"] That is part of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). They need to learn that there is a balance to perfectionism: Do the best possible... [I][B]in the time allowed[/B][/I]. The time constraint is what provides balance. For example: husband is totally Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) about "clean house"... We've agreed, though, that it shouldn't take us more than X hours a week between us, and if it does - we either have to find ways to create less mess (I bought a basket for each person's "current" paper stack so I can whisk them out of view, for example), or relax our standards, or prioritize. Top priority is sanitation. After that? negotiate. [/QUOTE]
