[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 527743, member: 1550"] My son has the same troubling issues. He always smells bad. Forcing him to shower doesn't mean much. He is eighteen and I sure can't wash him and he is much larger than hub and hub doesn't feel comfortable making him bathe by going in there with his grown kid. We do make him launder his clothes. Sometimes he will put old smelly clothes on. This is actually common with autistic spectrum kids (I was told) as they don't "get" social norms nor care much about them, plus some have sensory issues and hate the bath thing with water on them. At this point, he is eighteen and will be getting adult supports. They know about his hygiene issues. Amazingly he has friends at school and nobody teases him, at least not to his face. It is very difficult when they don't care. [/QUOTE]
