Ok, so I have another weird one for you. Daniel is not just picking at his shoes now he's chewing them. Have any of you experienced this? He used to just...
Kellie, Is it just the laces or the rubber soles, too?? Do reward help? Megan chews laces...shoes, ties on sweatshirts and I use rewards. She also loves to...
It's the sole of the shoe. I never thought about using a reward. I'll have to try that. We've just been telling him to stop. Works for about a minute. ...
Can you put that nail biter stop stuff on the soles - it tastes awful and then maybe he won't enjoy it and stop doing it? My daughter chews on everything when...
Okay I just had another weird thought - you have lots of dogs... do they chew on stuff like shoes? Is he pretending he is a dog or wanting to be one? If so...
Delia,  Those are some good ideas. I'll look into the nail biter stuff. Gum may not work for Daniel since he swallows it instead of spitting it out. ...
Delia,  Thanks. My dogs actually only chew toys and sometimes Daniel's toys. I don't think it's connected to the dogs at all. I think it's more of a...
Kellie, Regarding the "reward" thing. I can tell at the end of the day if Megan has chewed her sweatshirt strings, if she hasn't, she may get a food treat or...
Monica,  Thanks. Have you ever had a problem with Megan not caring about the reward after a while? Even when I change up the reward Daniel quite often...
Oh yes - Johnny has been a chewer! He went through stages - it was cardboard for a while. If I brought in a cardboard box he'd head for it and chew on the side...

Hi Kellie, My daughter Gigi likes to chew on things from time-to-time. It's a way to unload stress. I used to give her chew toys for babies even up to 8-9...
Yeah...sometimes the reward isn't good enough after awhile. It takes lots of creativity. I don't know if I posted the "trash" thing on here or not.....the...
Monica,  Thanks. I appreciate it. It's just so frustrating. What you said about the trash is so funny. Daniel wouldn't see that as a punishment. ...
