One day he was playing in the park and was
badly bitten by a spider. He was never afraid of them before until he
got bitten. He became so fearful that every time he saw one he would
cry, tremble and have a panic attack. He would sweat and almost faint.
Almost all physiological signs of fear were present at the mere sight of
a spider, no matter how far away.
Oh it was truly embarrassing… He did this
in front of everyone. All the other moms had kids who were fine with
spiders. Johnny was the only kid making a scene. This needed to stop.
Johnny’s mom called a child ‘expert’ who
had experience with such situations. He told Johnny’s mom she was being
too soft on her kid; she needed to show him that she was the boss so
that he would not try to dominate her by having a panic attack – on
purpose – when he saw a spider. He was clearly trying to be the leader
of the family and take charge of the household by sweating and almost
fainting. How dare he?! Involuntary crying, involuntary sweating and
involuntary trembling were not acceptable. It was obvious that he was
doing these involuntary (aka reflex) behaviors on purpose. And the
expert was going to make sure the mom had complete control over the
involuntary behaviors. Click here to read full article.
