[QUOTE="Shari, post: 216729, member: 1848"] Hugs. Who cares about shirt sleeves? BUT, for the last $1000 neuropsyche review, I got one tidbit of info that was very helpful for us regarding that exact same topic. I'll share it with you FOR FREE! My difficult child chews his shirts, too. And the Occupational Therapist (OT) at the neuropsyche evaluation suggested going to Lowe's and buying refrigerator ice maker water line tubing. Its about 7 cents a foot, similar to a straw in consistency, and they can chew a piece all day long. Its been a shirt-saver, for sure. We cut the tubing into 5 or 6 inch pieces, then use a heated nail to put holes in each end and then feed a cord thru it so he can wear it like a necklace. Sometimes he puts beads or something else on it, too, and when he gets into shirt chewing mode, he chows on the necklace instead. The Occupational Therapist (OT) said she had kids that just kept a piece in their pocket, too. [/QUOTE]
