[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 237407, member: 6546"] Terry-- I love that you "get" my humor! :blushing: All kidding aside, though-- Lillians-- I am having sort of the opposite trouble with my difficult child. We already struggle with hygiene issues (showering, brushing teeth, etc)...and though we have spoken to her many times about keeping herself clean during that time of the month--I still don't believe she's actually changing those pads when she should {[I]Ugh, I know! So disgusting[/I]...}. The last time we went shopping for feminine products (which was months ago), they were having a sale on the economy-sized package. And when I put the package in the shopping cart, she made a weird face and said "[I]Mom,[/I] [I]don't buy the big pack--I'll never need that many[/I]." :surprised1::sick: Which prompted another talk about changing the pads every few hours... And here we are, in January...and she's still got plenty left. So it looks like we have to have the talk again....and probably again. At the end of the day, though--so much of this is a maturity issue...and difficult children definitely lag behind their peers. So I'm almost thinking that my daughter in denial about the whole thing (and maybe if she thinks that if she doesn't deal with it--it will just go away.) Perhaps all the chatter is your daughter's way of coping this with new reality of her life as a woman? It is an awfully big change to deal with... --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
