[quote=Anonymous]Along the same lines as medical condition....when I was in college I coached swim team during the summer. There was one boy who every summer (ages 6-9) who if he didn't spit, would have drool dripping down his chin. Obviously, this became a concern that he was salivating so much and I was worried he would inhale some of his spit while swimming and start coughing/drinking in pool water. When I approached his parents, they explained that when he was anxious or nervous, he salivated more than normal and no matter how many times he swallowed, it was never enough, which is why he spit. OP, tell your son it is not ok and you don't want him doing it. If the other kid spits in your direction, tell him not to do that. But honestly, it isn't your place to parent someone else. [/quote]
