From Jennifer Graham Hampton

Does anyone has any ideas/solutions for an obsessive nail biting/finger chewing kid? I know there is some anxiety going on here for my little guy, who is almost 4yrs old. Any o/t excercises people recommend or ways to help him deal w/ his anxiety? He is verbal but has a speech disorder so he has low intelligiblity – his fingers are getting bloody!

From Becky Richmond

Any ideas how to handle meltdowns that won’t end. I’m going insane with my 3 y/o, and he won’t let me near him. Aiden does this all the time! I found when i try to touch him it sends him wild as he has sensory issues with touch try creating a safe corner with pillows or just lay the child on bed and put just your hand on there back.
