This situational mutism card (Aka selective mutism) gives a quick and accessible way to explain the condition, whenever it is needed.
It says "I have situational mutism, a condition where a stress response means I can’t speak in certain situations, however much I want to.I can understand you. I will speak if/when I am able to. Until then, let me be involved without trying to make me talk. See the back of this card for more info."
The back of this card has a blank space, so you can write additional information if you wish. This card can be written on with ballpoint pen, fountain pen, and pencil. Be aware that these cannot be erased after writing.
We sell these cards 'pick and mix' style - choose the cards you want. You will receive a plain metal split ring with your cards. This card is compatible with all other Keyring Cards and keyring card accessories on this site.
Most are available with striped borders or plain borders. (The plain cards are colour coded - pale green for ‘I’m Ok’, pale blue for ‘information’, pale orange for ‘I need you to change your behaviour' or 'I'm not OK', and pale purple for ‘I have a specific condition’.)
Photos which include other cards are only to illustrate what a final pack may look like.
