TabItem Header Click not Always Firing

I wanted to find a method of firing an event when the TabItem of a Page is selected. I had a look around and found that placing a Label on the header and using MouseLeftButtonDown was a way of making this event fire. The XAML looks like this;

    <TabItem>
            <TabItem.Header>
                <Label Content="Archived Jobs"  MouseLeftButtonDown="CallArchivedJobsTabItemSelected"/>
            </TabItem.Header>
    </TabItem>

There is an issue with this fix though, in that if the user clicks in a specific place under the Label they will be able to select the TabItem without the event firing. How can I program this differently to ensure that they cannot bypass the event firing?

You could try to use SelectionChanged Event, it works pretty well. See example:

private void MyTabControl_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    Console.WriteLine("You selected tab number {0}", MyTabControl.SelectedIndex);
}
