[quote=Anonymous]We have this issue. Consider using a cbt approach, this is how I would try... Step 1: have ds go to foot of stairs , maybe 10 times. After each time, have him rate how uncomfortable it made him feel. This should go down as you repeat. Step 2: have ds go up 2 steps, also 10 times (or whatever it takes to get home comfortable). Etc. We did variations like calling out ( A la Marco polo), walking partway and having kid take half flight etc. Took a bit of patience but at some point my child decided it was ok.[/quote]
