Help!

My three-year-old son picks at his nose very often and I found him eating his own booger lately! Worst! Today I saw him digging into his backside and smelling his finger afterwards!

Is my child normal? What should I do?

Yours sincerely,

My youngest son tells me that he has a classmate who also eats her boogers. Yes, a girl.

niceheart: Not on a daily basis I hope…

I think Gavin is very normal. Most children are very curious and some are adventurous. They do explore things from their body, esp when they had new finding. I recalled the first time I tasted my own mucus. I was curious to realise when the slimy thing flowing from my nose reached my mouth tasted salty! And when swallow owe phlegm taste salty too. But I am not adventurous enough to try the poo! and those from the ear! That’s too gross! But my dear hubby told me those taste bitter! Erwk!

wtpg: Er…you mean he ate before izzit???
