Does This Child Have Some Sensory Issues?
I have a child in my care that is always in trouble. She seems to have to touch everything all the time. She is always touching everything in her reach including other kids. And she she is constantly putting her feet on everything including other kids. And now just lately she has started licking everything, especially her hands. This morning we caught her licking soap off her hands in the bathroom. She never listens and is aways doing something she isn't supposed to be doing like poking other kids with her fork at the lunch table. And she won't do anything she is suppposed to do such as pick up the toys. She is also very possessive. She wants what everyone else is playing with and is always in the middle of their play space pushing the other kids out. But she won't ever share anything she is playing with. She hoards toys. This child is three and a half years old. What can the problem be and how can I handle it. She spends a lot of her day in time-out and I don't think that is doing anything for her at all. If anything it is keeping her from learning proper behavior because she is away from the other kids so much. And even in time-out she is pushing, touching, kicking, licking everything she can get to. She does seem to enjoy playing by herself in a completely different area from the other kids, but I don't want her doing that all the time either. She knows how to push our buttons, too. If her behavior doesn't get our attention, then she will start making irratating noises. Anybody have any thoughts or advice?

something is going on. I would have the parents call the school district for some help. If she is 3 and up the school district is the place to ask for her to be evaluated.If they could do an observation in your program it would be very helpful

I have one of these, 3 yr old boy, EVERYTHING goes in his mouth-toys,grass,sticks,a whole handful of sand! He constantly has his fingers in his mouth, drives me crazy! He headbutts the older kids randomly, bangs his head on the floor & walls, runs up and hits them-thinking they will play. He also likes to play by himself most of the time. He acts like he can't hear you alot, and whines and cries when I take his hand to direct him to instruction. He doesn't talk, maybe says 5-10 simple words, very behind on his vocabulary. He also makes very minimal eye contact. Parents don't think he has a problem, they say he speaks fine and in complete sentences at home. I know no parent wants to admit their child may have an issue, but I feel like now that he is 3, they are being completely niave(sp) and ignorant for not trying to help him!

Yeah, that's what I think needs to happen, but the parents don't seem to think she has a problem.

OP, you need to have your child evaluated by the district to see what's going on. |
