Is it a deficiency of some sort or just sheer boredom? What makes a 10 yr old eat a soft foam ball? He didn't ingest it but he ate it all the same. I asked why he would do that and he just shrugged his shoulders. I just don't get it.
Our three year old on the other hand is crazy. He is working on potty training and it is not going well. We have tried everything. Positive reinforcement, Negative reinforcement nothing works. He gets in the general area before he poops in his pants. At least he stands IN FRONT of the toilet before he does it. We ask why he didn't just sit on the toilet and he tells us he couldn't find it. He than thinks that we should move his bed into the bathroom so he can find the toilet easier. I don't get it.
Our four year old is selectively deaf. You can be looking right at her and talking to her and she acknowledges you but does the exact opposite. Last year she was having a hard time hearing so we took her to the Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist and sure enough she had thick fluid in her ears that made it sound like she was under water. We keep asking her if it feels like that again and she just says no. She just wants to do what she wants to do.
Our children are on a collective mission to make us nuts. Big surprise there.
