[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 441311, member: 3419"] Ugh--1-12/ hrs!!!! Our drive is 15 min. And if it helps any, my difficult child used the towels for the same thing. Mostly, he didn't use anything at all, and just got back into his clothes. I finally talked to him--in the bathroom--and in a calm voice, told him I'd purchased Wet Wipes, even though he's not a baby, and told him they're the same things we use in the car to get melted chocolate off of our hands (he can identify with-that ... he has to have SOME of my bad habits, lol!) and after he uses the Wet Wipes, he can use regular TP to dry himself. I told him he has to look at the TP ea time he wipes, to be sure it has come clean. Ea time he wipes, he looks, and if it takes 6 wipes, so be it. I think he really followed my directions to a T, because we soon had clean towels and an overflowing toilet that leaked through the ceiling!!!! We had a Toto installed a cpl wks ago and it is a wonderful toilet. So, I solved one problem and moved onto another ... someday, maybe this will seem funny. Right now, I kind of want to throw up, Know what I mean?? by the way, with-your son's drug exposure in utero, you will have to repeat this scenario over and over until he gets it. FYI. I agree with-the others, that if bmom used drugs, you've got a whole host of other issues. Keep breathing. [/QUOTE]
