[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a tragic case in my home town of a a teenage boy who died because he was chewing on one of those old bic pen lids (so the long bit was bent into a curve) and he accidentally swallowed it. The curve acted like a hook and punctured his trachea or something. So tragic. Since then, I always tell people not to put things like that in their mouths.[/quote] Oh you can tell but do they listen. My DS chews his pens like there's no tomorrow. It leaked a couple of times and it doesn't seem to encourage him to stop. So in our house, we often see those wet, chewed up pens all over the place. I just dump them in the bin if it looks too disgusting. I bought him a branded metal pen one birthday, he chewed it too. His girlfriend is also a pen chewer and a nail biter too. So it's common but I really hope he outgrows it. I have seen bank tellers chew pens in front of me. Terrible habit. [/quote]
