Andrew has started biting his finger nails and he is biting them right down to the end and is now complaining of sore fingers. Anyone got tips on how I can stop him doing it till it hurts. I know there is nail polish you can get that tastes funny to make them stop but anything else please.

will try and think of things, but I wouldnt use the nail polish with Andew because if you touch any food with it on it tastes really really gross

Would he pull plasters off? We tried to bribe Hannah - at the end of the day she would get nail polish on the unbitten ones. (There is a thread on that somewhere.) In the end nothing worked but she seems to have since gotten out of the habit herself.
