In addition to teeth grinding, nail-biting is common among children, and it has direct consequences on their nails and sometimes cuticles—some children who are excessive nail biters suffer from injuries that lead to bad infections.
Biting-nail-anxiety is a serious thing, and it is as serious with 2-year old biting nails as it is serious with an 11-year old. The proper way, in our opinion, to make your child stop entirely with this habit relies on the fact that you need to understand the root cause of the habit, which is stress, generally speaking, but, nevertheless, differs from one child to the next. After that, you need to provide them with stress-relieving alternatives so that they do not take it out on their nails.
