[QUOTE="Fran, post: 251085, member: 3"] It has been a constant struggle. At 24 he is more aware and will do it but must be reminded every day. He only this year started to brush his hair. (very curly). I remind him to use soap and deodorant. At least now he does it and not pretend. It is no longer a basket "C". He ends up ostracizing himself because he looks unkept. Adults avoid him. He is a big guy who will wear the same pair of pants for weeks at a time if not reminded. If the knees are torn out, then so what? He will not get jobs, social interaction or any sort of positive feedback because of his appearance. This is where he still needs supervision. He is capable of doing it but isn't capable of remembering the steps involved. If he is willing- a checklist on the mirror in the bathroom may help him. [/QUOTE]
