I have a neice who doesn't seem to feel pain. She is now almost 2 and I have seen her run full force into tables, chairs and walls and she bareley even stops. Will just rub the place that she hit and keep on going. She has fallen off of chairs, off of the swing set and same reaction. Her parents just say oh well she's tough. She is covered with bruises because of all the times she hurts herself. She is not cautious in any way. She can fall off of something, get up and do it all over again. Not just once or twice but 8 or 9 times. I watched her run around the dining room table and everytime she would turn one corner she would run right into the china cabinet. This happend 4 or 5 times untill her mother started warning her it was there. After a few times of warning her, her mother stopped and she immediately ran into it again. This doesn't sound normal at all to me and I think I'd have my kid looked at. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is this a sydrome or a medical condition of any kind?
