[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 77584, member: 3388"] Terry, I understand totally!!! difficult child 1 is 16 years old and still only brushes his teeth, takes a shower, clips his nails, and uses deoderant because he knows if he doesn't and gets caught, he'll lose some of his daily "Reward Time." However, even with the negative consequences of not bathing, we still have to remind him to do it. I know what I'm about to say next sounds unbelievable, but, it is honestly true. When difficult child 1 was in the 8th grade, there was a horrible odor in his room. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Finally, after about one week, I couldn't take it any longer. I tore apart his room. He had a bit of sh.. in a pair of underwear. He had wrapped the underwear in a clean shirt and toilet paper and put it in one of his draws. What was he thinking???
