[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 509480, member: 8831"] since she already gets the correlation between stinking and washing, do you know WHY she hates to take a shower? is it too hard, a sensory issue, a laziness issue, hate the feel of soap issue, the shampoo stinks, the pj's im wearing are really comfortable issue or is it the "there is no school tomorrow so why" issue? and does this include the i dont want to brush/dry my hair or brush my teeth issue too? (i get the hair help issue, mine has extremely long hair and it took a bit to learn to rinse properly, and umm, its ongoing) or, how about playing spa? basin of soapy water, wash cloth--wash hair in sink, lotion/powder,etc and top it off with a reward with toenail polish? (she's older, but with little kids it sometimes helps to let them wash their doll/toy). i'm pretty flexible on weekends too since we really dont go anywhere, but its helped to have a routine and time on school days. its really not optional, and she's used to it. its a lousy situation--hope she settles down asap.
