My 5 year old son is an absolutely normal kid, no diagnosed disorders, he's not autistic, very healthy. There's two habits that he has that I want to try and kick.
1) He picks his lips. While this can also be contributed to me, as I sometimes pick my lips when I'm bored or nervous. He however picks them until they're bloody. This happens everyday and his lips are always horribly scabby and gross.
2) He sniffs ALL the time. Like you know you sniff when you have a cold or something. He is perfectly healthy but sniffs probably 1/minute with the exception of him sleeping. It really gets annoying. He has no dianosed allergies, he's not sick and when I do ask him to blow his nose, usually nothing comes out.
I'm not looking to medicate him. How do I stop these annoying habits?
