[QUOTE="myfirstandlast, post: 87033, member: 3420"] I can't tell you what a big "elephant in the living room" this problem is. He's 12. He really, really stinks. He's in total denial. I think that's how he copes. Completely unwilling to address the problem in therapy, with his pediatrician, even when confronted with his own soiled underpants ... he has put together a really good "how did THAT get there" act over the years. I barely have the strength to convince him to clean up when he smells, he resists so much, and it causes so many problems with other family members. I'm hoping someone can tell me what I might be able to give him, over the counter would be most helpful, to get him cleaned out and regular. He is an extremely picky eater and I'd have to hide it well. I thought maybe I could slip some stool softener and fiber into a milkshake every morning or something. He skips breakfast because he is always racing for the bus, nearly missing it almost every morning. I've got so many other huge stressors going on right now, I don't have the energy to fight him over this anymore. I just want it to go away. [img]:tissue:[/img] [/QUOTE]
