[quote=Anonymous]Lots of injuries. (Never went 30 days without some kind of severe fall or weird accident due to impulsivity). Shoes. If you have to buy new shoes every 6-8 weeks because of the running. Other kids identify your kid as the crazy one. Lots of pictures with someone physically holding them in place when the camera clicks (I can now diagnose families based on Christmas cards or FB photos! JK. Kinda) Extreme food issues. OVERSTUFFING the mouth to the point of choking when hungry or chugging down liquids like they are at a frat party. LACK OF HAND-ME-DOWNS because they destroy clothing. Stuff like that. You can also try a quick OT assessment and see what they think. If it is developmental thing where your kiddo needs to have a better sense of space they can help. Also, motor planning and self-regulation. One of my kids was an obvi diagnosis. Other I am still on the fence about (9) but OT helped him at 6. [/quote]
