My 4 year old stepson only weighs a little over 20 lbs. He won't eat ANYTHING...but fingernails, toenails, etc?

He also grinds his teeth so bad at night that his teeth are all broken off. Does anyone know if this could be the sign of some sort of disorder? He's been like this since I met him when he was 7 months old. I appreciate any help!My 4 year old stepson only weighs a little over 20 lbs. He won't eat ANYTHING...but fingernails, toenails, etc?
Obviously, your step son needs to see a doctor.

It could be an eating disorder called Pica. Hopefully, he receives regular and routine pediatric care. If not, I would get him to a pediatrician, ASAP. If there is something medically wrong with him, whoever his guardian is could be held accountable, legally, if they do not get him help. So schedule a pediatric appointment and make sure you know what things he does eat, if he has cravings for other weird things besides fingernails and toenails, and any other problems you can think of. best of luck to you--i hope the little one is well!
