Also his older sister has problems with chewing on her clothes. She is in first grade so you would think she wouldn't do that anymore. I tell her over and over again to stop and she continues to chew. Any ides on how to put an end to both of those things?! thanks!
it shows he has not a lot attention from parents. As a result he gets his habit of repeating. He is able to get an attention in this way only. The sister's behavior has the same roots.
