TD!!!! He's got some sensory issues!!!!

88% of kids on the spectrum have sensory issues, and some kids do without being on the spectrum. Sensory issues include tactile, auditory, oral factory, proprioceptive and visual... The way their brain processes certain parts pertaining to these things can cause irregular responses. For example, I know a child who hates the feel of denim... says it feels like knives.... M used to have panic attacks when a siren went by. M also has found out that sucking calms her down, so she does things now to self soothe including sucking her thumb which is a recent development.
