[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 141151, member: 3647"] You know, I almost forgot Tink's [I]biggest[/I] Sensory hot button, which got me looking onto Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) in the first place. Cutting her nails and brushing her hair. I remember waiting until she was dead asleep to try and cut her nails. She would wake up and sit bolt upright and start screaming. It's not like I cut her. She did not like the feeling of the clippers under her nail/touching her skin. She thought THAT hurt and that THAT meant I was going to cut her. So now we try filing them. Sometimes it works, other times she just has to bite the bullet. She really fights it though. Brushing her hair? To this day I put it in basket C. So she leaves the house looking like a ragamuffin some days. Most days, if she refuses to brush it or let me, at the very least she will let me pull it up and put it in a pony on the top of her head. As long a I don't brush it to get it there. So it looks kinda sloppy, but at least not crazy. I had a neighbor when she was 3-4 who came over and thought she fell or cut herself by how bad she was screaming. "Nope, just brushing her hair..." We go through a ton of conditioner to keep it as tangle free as possible. Yep, those two are the absolute worst... [/QUOTE]
