  • hi, thanks for that advice, hes always been fidgity, used to spin for ages, when he was small, kind of know its going to get replaced with another tic or habit, but honestly, this one is so hard for all of us,as a family, esp for the other children , when they cant hear the t.v. or concentrate without the noises, i am on the verge of going down the medical route and maybe get meds for him, i spoke to him last night and his answer to me was id love to have the same brain, but my body to be relaxed,so sad, thanks again,
