[quote=Anonymous]Heightened/overly sensitive - notices fine gradations of change in things like texture/taste sound. temperament that doesn't like novelty - fearful of things being different. usually kids are born with these traits but they can also be affected (both positively and negatively) by experiences. For example, a kid who inherently just prefers that same cereal day afte day after day, if lovingly encourgaed, could be drawn to try slightly different tastes and textures and after 80 tries, the kid will accept the food as familiar. If the child is routinely threatened and force fed foods he doesn't like or spanked if he refuses to eat them... the kid may go a different way.[/quote]
