OCD. It's a nervous thing. Supply him with a few cloth napkins.

My son is ADHD and does this. He has to do something with his hands. If he isn't using his hands to eat with he finds different things to do with them. I myself sometimes find that I play with paper tablecloths.

It's a nervous habit. My niece used to rip at the front seam of her shirt. Pulls the threads out. It's a stage. Good luck!
