Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Have any ideas to help a 4 year old cannot keep his clothes on. In the home he is customary to allow him to strip the moment he comes home from school. He is non-verbal and is continually stripping within the school environment. Any ideas from anyone on how to move forward with being able to get the little guy to tolerate more clothing within the school environment? Please help his teachers!

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 The home may need to help by not allowing him to strip there as well. This way there is consistency.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Hi! Your story sounds familiar! My son dislikes clothes as well. I had to put him in one piece footed sleepers and put a diaper safety pin (that he couldn't unlatch) right under the zipper so he couldn't pull it down. I've seen other parents cut the feet out and put the sleepers on backwards so the zipper goes up the kiddos back making it more difficult to strip. If you're handy with a sewin machine, you can sew velcro to the bottom of the shirts and tops of the pants all the way around, making it harder for him to strip....at least you hear it when he's trying...or you can put several snaps on the clothing pieces. Its hard to find one piece outfits but it is possible on Ebay in sizes up to 5T. We had to make him start wearing clothes at home too though because it was just too hard for him to understand when it was and wasn't appropriate to be naked. Good luck to you!
