Hello everyone
so my son who is 10 almost 11 is a clothes picker and it’s got so bad lately that I’m finding myself buying clothes every other month for him, multi packs of T-shirts, joggers and pants because he is shredding everything I think the only thing he hasn’t picked at are his socks. Brand new coat he ripped the cuffs and today brand new t-shirt he had on for just a couple of hours and he’s ripped it, I’m really feeling emotional about it because I just don’t know what to do to stop this behaviour.
He is a happy and confident boy who loves football and playing out with his friends on his bike, does well at school and is very competitive. I don’t think he has any thing like ASD but how would I know ? Does anyone have any advice that could help ? I’m thinking of taking him to the doctors but he gets upset when I say that.
