[QUOTE="Christy, post: 157131, member: 225"] Okay, I'm not willing to cause a meltdown over this but my son's table manners are so horrible. He is almost 10 but eats like a two year old. He takes huge bites and chews with his mouth open. He talks with his mouth full. He eats with his hands. He slops food on the table, floor, and himself. He is not aware of needing to wipe his mouth and when told to do so he uses his shirt rather than a napkin, he gulps his drink all down at once and burps loudly. Ice cream cones are a disaster. He has little social awareness and is therefore unmotivatied by the embarrassment factor. He has worked on this in social skills class but it hasn't helped so far. He's oppositional so mentioning it only makes it worse. Any ideas? Thanks Christy [/QUOTE]
