My 4-Year-Old Niece Loves To Perceive Horrific Scents. Is This Normal?

This isn't a joke..

I've been with the young family during this lockdown period and I observed her closely..

When someone stands up from the chair, she quickly put her nose there. Likes to smell one's fart as well as puts her nose close to rotten food, dirty socks, shoes etc..

It's getting out of hand and the mom is worried now..


Is this normal? Is this a rare medical condition? Will she change this habit over time? What can we do to help her?

Kindly advice
