[QUOTE="Mrs Smith, post: 67851, member: 3893"] If your daughter will go to a specialty hair salon, I would get someone there to teach her about her hair type and how to take care of it - even suggest other ways to wear it. Call ahead to explain the situation and find the right person. I know my son takes instruction much better from someone other than me. I'm not sure where your son is having a problem. We have a house rule about bathing - you can skip a day but not two in a row. I'm not sure what the sticking point is but there's usually a reason and a workaround. Try suggesting sponge baths, washing hair in the sink, showering instead of bathing or vice versa, written instructions for the step-by-step procedure, tweaking the kind of products, using washcloths instead of hands, assisting him, etc.... It's amazing how many small things could be getting in the way. I would put this in Basket B - necessary but worth negotiating the details. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
