My stepson has Geographic Tongue!!!?

My 10 year old daughter has that same thing and she never really said anything was hurting her, no matter what she ate.She eats lemons almost every day and loves spicy foods . she might have said something about it a few times but it was only because we mentioned it first. I don't think that it bothers him as much as you think(but I could be wrong) Try telling him that he doesn't have it any more and see what happens. That's what we did and if it did hurt her it must have not hurt too bad and she just got used to it.(maybe she built up a tolerance for it or something like that)
