Should I stop my child from flapping their hands?

In most cases you don't need to stop hand-flapping — it is a common, natural way children express excitement or self-soothe, and stopping it can remove a helpful coping tool. Notice when and why it happens, keep your child safe, and seek a developmental check only if it appears alongside other things you'd like understood. AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
