Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. this is just a habit in your child which can be changed.
you can either divert the child or you can talk with the child to change the habit.
many times by regular negative feedback mechanism you will be unable to change the habit of the child.
you can take help of your pediatrician .
