My little boy is 3 and a half and absolutely HATES wearing any clothing which has buttons on, or is jeans.
My partner and I have been continually battling with each other. I say let him wear what he thinks is comfy, and my partner wants to break this habit/fear.
Every single morning the first thing he says when he wakes up is “is it a jean day?”. I’ve never know someone to get so upset over clothing, and can’t see any reason which would have caused this fear.
These are the only sensory issues he has, he’s fine with loud sounds, speech is very good, etc.
What would you do? It’s becoming increasingly difficult to not find clothing with buttons on, particularly now he’s getting bigger. The jeans cause a melt down, and chinos are a no go for him to!
Thanks in advance!
