“Kids with tactile defensiveness have both behavioral and emotional responses that tend to be way out of proportion to the issue at hand. They seem to react in pain to things that shouldn’t be painful. I have always described it as the nails-on-the-chalkboard feeling when I touch a button or when something tactile really bothers me. And it’s true.” – Alternative Learning
