Is aggressive behaviour linked to tactile defensiveness?

by Vicky
(uk)

Our daughter is 7 and has always complained about clothing and in particular ,seams in socks. Her tantrums in the mornings to get ready for school have got particularly unbearable and she gets very loud and aggressive with us. It is also upsetting her younger sister and affecting family life terribly.

I had never heard of SPD until i googled "seamless socks" to see if there were any products available that may help with this and was amazed to see how common it is,and wish we had discovered this sooner!

At school she is a model pupil with excellent academic results but her behavior at home is aggressive and getting more out of control....any advice please?

the results are coming in from all over the country. The Swring works to calm aggressive behavior and also to stimulate passive and withdrawn children to become more social.

Hello Wicki, I know the problems you described. I have a girl in my family with similar problems as well as others. In my experience I can tell you that the calm and distraction while wearing clothes helps a little. I noticed that some days are more sensitive than others. I do not know in the UK, but in Italy we did not find a therapy to treat these problems. But I must tell you that with time they can better manage their discomfort. wishes.
