Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years agoA. Do u mean eating soil? If ur child has been eating any non food items for a long time it could be due to a condition called pica(a tendency or craving to eat substances other than normal food). This condition may be due to some deficiency like iron or zinc. Consulting with ur pediatrician and getting the body element levels measured could help.

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy4 years agoA. One form of treatment associates the pica behavior with negative consequences or punishment (mild aversion therapy). Then the person gets rewarded for eating normal foods. Medicines may help reduce the abnormal eating behavior if pica is part of a developmental disorder such as intellectual disability.
