[QUOTE="Shari, post: 263311, member: 1848"] I know toothpaste is a relatively "new" thing, and I've heard that baking soda was used before it was a common household item, but I wasn't sure how to use it, and his dentist is fine with our little ACT rinse routine, so I didn't go digging. But if there's a relatively flavorless way to do it better, I'm all for it! *** We did our usual morning prep, didn't do anything extra, and I took him in this morning and the school nurse gave him a big hug. He was even wearing his coat, which has a potential to smell, and she really tried, and she could not find anything offensive. She then apologized again, because she had sent the email without first checking him for herself. *** I asked her if she would randomly check him and keep me posted, because I am very concerned about this. I most certainly do not want him to smell bad. He has enough issues going on; he doesn't need that piled on top of them. And I don't want someone wrongly accusing me of not taking care of my child, either. There are more pristine children out there, I'm sure. But this one is not neglected and smelly. *** I make a special trip to the city to buy his soap and laundry detergent, for crying out loud. Do neglectful parents who don't bother to wash their kids& drive 60 miles extra just to get special detergent and soap for their kid? *** I didn't really think it, but my mom and exMIL both think this is a devious ploy. And exMIL used to work in this district with some of these people. I guess I;m kind of shocked that she would suggest that. I thought people in this profession would be above games like that. For her mind to go there tells me that its entirely possible. Tho I still would rather beleive that's not happening here. [/QUOTE]
