The Boy

…is 7.5 years old, and doesn’t know how to blow his nose.

He does, however, know how to sniff.

Sniff.

Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff.

It’s more than a little annoying. Oh, and something something compassion for his suffering too.

Especially when he then coughs, presumably because he’s sniffed post-nasal drip into his mouth.

(Yuck.)

I’m unaware of how to teach another human being how to blow his nose.

We’ve tried to explain it to him, but all he does is inhale through his nose.

Or cough.

Surely he isn’t the first kid who has had trouble with this.

How did you other parents do it?
