[quote=Anonymous]My DD has hummed while she eats since about 13 months old.  She probably does it 50% of the time.  We have never addressed it.

So, I was talking to her preschool teacher the other day and she commented that DD really liked her cupcake at snack.  Then another teacher piped up, "we always know when she likes what she is eating,"  like it was this big inside joke.  I didn't get it at first, and they must of realized this.  So, then everyone starts laughing, and the first teacher explained about the humming.  I was able to chuckle, but my heart sank.  It is a joke.

Truthfully, I don't think these women have done anything wrong.  I think they just think it is cute.  But, it has got me thinking about kids making fun of her.  What can I do?  I have known two other people that did exactly this (monotonous, tuneless humming while eating), and they continued to do it until adulthood.  I remember trying to always keep one of them talking at lunch to get them to stop humming, because I felt bad for him.  I can't believe I now have my own little hummer!  How weird is life?  [/quote]
