摘      要：Transient ties are common, particularly among children under the age of 10 years. In fact, about 20% of kids in this age group have ties that disappear as they get older. Nonetheless, parents often are concerned about what strange movements or sounds mean and what can be done about them. Many have heard horror stories about Tourette s syndrome and fear a life of social rejection because of uncontrollable urges. In this article, the author discusses the various types of ties and the wide range of treatments available for their management.
