[QUOTE="geezloueez, post: 89570, member: 4243"] Thank you for taking time to respond to me. I read the sensory integrative dysfunction article you recommended and there could be something to that. It is mostly taste, a little bit of smell and a little bit of touch, as in he doesnt like to wear clothes or shoes. He says they are too small when really they aren't. I will need to investigate that further. Especially when they talked about cutting nails and hair. That also is an issue for us. As far as I know, the only family disorders are anxiety and depression which manifest periodically in our immediate family. However, I am sensitive to smells also. And I remember as a child not wanting to wear certain clothes because they were 'itchy'. I still have to cut out all the tags. So maybe he gets it from me. I discussed the situation with my husband last night. My son is at a preschool 2 days a week and other than a little crying when being dropped off, usually has great days there. So, we are wondering what are we doing wrong? We are going to try to introduce some structure to his daily routine when he is not in preschool. I think that could help ease some tension when he has a better idea of what to expect during the course of a day. That sounds so simple, right? Other than behavior, I havent noticed any differences really. He is pretty clever and adventurous. He speaks well. He will sit quietly and do an activity and other times be very physically active. I understand most kids don't like to be told what to do. It just seems like his reactions are so over-the-top that it makes me wonder. Sometimes when I tell people, I think they think I am exaggerating. Even family. Because they don't see it all the time, I think they find it hard to believe. Maybe it is just a toddler thing that he will grow out of. [/QUOTE]
