It honestly makes me so sad. Why does she/they feel he needs reins at 3 years old?James is 3. The place is pretty empty. There's 2 adults with him. Why does he need reins?
And by the looks of it, they've bought him bigger ones too.

I have 3 kids. One of them is 10 months older than James. She hasn't had reins since she was around 1 and a half.Is it the norm for a kid his age to have reins? I thought it seemed a bit much but don’t have younger children in my family! I thought this was more for toddlers…
Exactly as I noted earlier, there’s deffo more going on. In no way should she be embarrassed by his milestones but she should be seeking help as he isn’t where a typical 3 year old should be. No 3 year old I know wears reins when there is literally an adult just for them- let him free! Teach him to hold a hand, hold the buggy, or even get a buggy board. It’s strange! He only plays with Thomas or diggers, that’s not imaginative small world- there’s a whole lot more to it. Dress up, pretending 1 thing is another, copying what he sees mum/dad going, building, creating, mark making. Not playing with the same track, in the same way.Im wondering if there's more to it.
I work in a special needs school and just the small snippits she shows of James are very similar to a child with autism
Not saying he has it at all.
But it would explain the reins, his lack of speech (her words), the fixation on Thomas the tank. His meltdowns at the change of routine.
Just to list a few.
I did think similar. Especially as right from the age of 1, he'd sit glued to the TV for hours.Im wondering if there's more to it.
