[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a kid with really severe sensory issues -- set off by things like feeling the seams of clothes including zippers, couldn't bear wearing fabrics like corduroy, buttons, etc.
He mostly wore a not very trendy velour sweat suit.  When we met the other velour sweatsuit kids and their moms, it was like "Oh, we've found our tribe." 
 
Second kid was fine.  She wore a Cinderella halloween costume with red sparkly Walmart shoes to most of Pre-K.  Not sensory issues, just eccentric.  (Still is).

Third child?  My husband referred to our daughter as "Sensory Issues Barbie."

I spent most of their childhood ashamed, embarrassed and really really worried about being judged.  Kind of killed the SAHM vibe for me and drove me back to work.  I really wish I hadn't felt so judged -- or been so judged.[/quote]

What a shame you felt so embarrassed and judged. As I was reading your post, I was thinking, "Hey, I would like to be friends with [i]that[/i] family!"[/quote]
