[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 478319, member: 11847"] Since he has a "thing" about shoes, maybe that's just it: he REALLY liked the shoes he had on and did not want to ruin them? If the "issue" is more generalized (anything messy, that would touch him, even if it come and goes or don't seem to be logical), he could have some sensory sensitivity. Try to read about sensory processing disorder (SPD) (sensory processing disorder, although overwhelming because incredibly complex) and see if anything fits. I am not saying he has sensory processing disorder (SPD), but we ALL have sensory sensitivities. We are not perfect, smoothly running machines! I don't have sensory processing disorder (SPD) (not to the point to qualify it as a disability at least), but just a little example: clothes tend to bother me. As a child, my mother did not understand when I would tell her the underwear hurt. But it was not to the point it completly blocked me. I hated it, but dealt with it. Now, as a grown up: comfort comes first! socks and underwear are worn inside out so the seams don't touch me! :) If you want to do a "little therapy" have him play with shaving cream on a cookie sheet, or a bin full of rice, finger paint. You get the idea. [/QUOTE]
