I have the same problem with my 9 year old son. I too thought of having him wear gloves in the house. His dad tried that nasty brush on stuff to no avail. I have tried rewards as well as punishments. He stopped for a while and his fingers went back to looking great. I think that kids get some sort of pleasure out of it--from what I have been reading. This all makes me feel defeated however.
