[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 644073, member: 831"] Ugh! What is UP with the no hygiene thing some difficult children? :biting: Son hates brushing his teeth. He never would if I didn't nag him. The last time, a couple of years ago, our family dentist began to lecture me about his lack of tooth care while he was cleaning my teeth because they were becoming so bad. Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. I sat up and pushed the tray of instruments away and told him if he didn't stop I was walking out to never return along with the family. Then, I informed him of the struggles and battles I had just in getting him to come to the dentist for years and that the only reason I could get him to agree was because of his very cute and sweet receptionist and her kindness towards him. He will, however, shower, but I've seen him go a week without one. I do nag much less these days now that he's 18. I can't micromanage this kid forever. He also will wear every single piece of clothing until all are dirty before he launders his clothes. A couple of weeks ago, the smell coming from his room due to dirty clothing began to smell up the entire house! I feel your pain, Terry. [/QUOTE]
