[quote=Anonymous]My 4yo son has some sensory issues - most prominently, he is very sensitive to noise, and also flaps his hands/jumps when he is excited or nervous. With regard to the noise, he is in OT, and it has improved (aka, he will stay in the room now when I use a hairdryer, will use an electric toothbrush at home, etc.). However, when he is in public, and not "in control" of the noise, he still freaks out and it has started to affect him socially. (Aka, will run away from the park if he hears a siren, scared to death of the electric razor when getting his hair cut, etc.). In terms of the hand flapping, he does stop it if I cue him, but he seems to do it almost involuntarily. I think other kids are starting to notice it. I was wondering if anyone has any input as to whether these sensitivities will "go away" as he gets older. Or, will he just learn how to adapt better? Thanks in advance. [/quote]
