[QUOTE="missmommy, post: 706783, member: 21323"] Son is 13, diagnosed ADHD/anxiety. On several medications including Vyvanse and Zoloft. Likes bathing. Likes to soak in super hot water. Often does not use soap or wash his hair. Smells WORSE when he leaves the tub than when he got in. Tends to get into things in the bathroom, makes a huge mess and sometimes bothers other peoples' things and products. The truth is, he smells awful a good bit of the time. I have tried buying him his own items such as AXE and things made for "men" as he does live in a house of only women. I find them unopened, unused. I have even helped him a few times to wash his hair properly and advised him when he's done to rinse off with the handheld shower especially if he's been sitting in super hot water which is like a sauna. Is this a battle I should bother with? I thought he'd outgrow it but it seems to be a real issue for him. And others. My mom complains about it and hates when he rides in her car because of how bad he smells. [/QUOTE]
