Do any of your kids chew on their toes? Liz has done this since she was a baby. Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy. Get more from your inbox. Sign up now.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Yes, my 10 yo gson chews on his toenails, and actually I did as a child too. The more I learn about AS, the more I think I have some of the traits. And my brother was diagnosed as AS last year at the age of 55!!

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Chewing on your toenails is not a sign of autism or AS. It's just a weird quirk some people have.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks Michele. I thought the toe biting thing had to mean something.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 My daughter who does not have AS but has anxiety and OCD and trichotillomania also chews her toes. We just started zoloft and are hoping the hair pulling with get under control. It hasn't been too bad since last year when she had a mean and loud/angry yelling teacher. She developed a bald patch then. She doesn't appear to have a bald patch now but I still find balls of hair she's rolled up. She likes the feeling of the hair when she rolls it between her fingers or thumbs. Maybe the zoloft will help with the finger and toe chewing as well!
