[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 362544, member: 3419"] I hear you! [I]I feel like the gluten free diet would help him, I really do. BUT if I do that at home, he would just blow the whole thing when I wasn't looking. If he's not committed to trying it....forget it. [/I] Doesn't matter whether he adheres to it at school, etc. You can tell the teachers and cafeteria workers and have him separated from his peers. Or, just let him eat whatever he eats at school by trading. Do NOT give him lunch $. Meanwhile, [B]what goes on in your house is your decision. You can still have a gluten free household and it will help.[/B] This is going to severely limit your ability to eat out, by the way. We used to bring our own pasta to our fave Italian restaurant. They kept it in the kitchen for us. They closed and now we have to find another spot to eat. Sushi is too expensive! [I]My difficult child doesn't think he smells, nor that his rooms smells, nor that his clothes have an odor I can't get rid of.[/I] Again, it's your house and your rules. He's got to shower/bathe, and do his laundry. Does he have TV or computer privileges? Great bartering tools. "When you've finished your shower, you can watch TV." But ONLY when he's finished. (That's where splicing the TV cord makes a difference.) In reg to the odor, after his loads are done, I go through the rinse cycle again with-white vinegar. Then I go through the rinse cycle again with-fabric softener. Two extra rinse cycles but it really helps. Also, the odd odor could be an endocrine problem. Have you have him checked? [/QUOTE]
