[quote=Anonymous]OP my youngest hates them too and he's 6yo. He's had two this winter (strep both times) and both times I held him in my lap with my arms around him preventing him from rebelling. He had to have a lot of shots and tests when he was younger and it was the only thing that worked. I have to say now, he is far less agonized about it. But there's no way on earth that he'd go for practicing like the PP suggests. Do what works for you but a tight hug for 20 seconds isn't really all that traumatizing. Some kids are just never going to want to have this kind of test done.[/quote]
