Obsessive complusive behaviours #2

1. When he is in the bathtub, we can't turn on the shower. He keeps saying "Shower vara koodathu" (the shower shouldn't turn on) throughout his bath - atleast 15 times.

2. Before going to sleep, he will say "Bad dreams vara koodathu" - again atleast 15 times. I have no clue where that one came from.

3. While sitting on the potty, I need to be very close by and in plain sight. If not, he will keep calling out to me ("Mommy. Mommy. Mommmmmeeee!) repeatedly and continuously until I appear in front of him. It drives me nuts! :)

How humdrum would life be without such craziness?
