[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would talk to my child’s pediatrician and ask for advice including a[b] referral to a child psychologist for starters. [/b] If you think something is off, follow your gut. Don’t let anyone talk you out of your intuition. [/quote] I think this is a little bit extreme. Rushing kids off to mental health professionals at the age of 5 for any little change in behavior is not a good precedent to set. OP, what happens when you push back a little bit? "Larlo, it's only water; you don't need to change your shirt." "Larlo, it's a warm, sunny day. Go put on some pants and a t-shirt; you'll be a lot more comfortable." [/quote]
