Edd does seem to strive for perfection, but I feel this is because he takes pride in his superior intelect. If you were the smartest kid in class, you'd want to keep that position, wouldn't you? I would, and so does Edd. This is why he was almost crying at the spelling bee. In his point of view, coming in second was basicly losing, and he was so used to winning that his pride got the best of him.

I do believe that there is some parentel neglect in there, but it doesn't seem to effect Edd that much. If you look at the episodes with the sticky notes, he seems used to it and is almost comfortable reading and following his parents notes. At least they actually show that they care about him. In the episode A Fistful Of Ed, his mother noticed he had been crying, so she fixed him a special lunch to make him feel better. If that isn't love, I don't know what is. Edd still had problems, but he doesn't have it so bad.
