[quote=Anonymous]My adhd girl, now 10, not only chewed her hair constantly, she ate it (ugh!). I tried many things. As she got a little older, gum helped, but not much, because she doesn't really like it. Mostly what works is to keep her hair cut short, in a really cute style, with all pieces out of mouth range. So she wouldn't feel bad about something she couldn't seem to help, I called it her 'summer cut' or her 'back to school cut', etc. Now I tell her that too, but when she asks to have it longer, I add that if she can stop chewing it, she can grow it out - whenever she's ready - its up to her. In the meantime, out of mouth range....[/quote]
