[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 649964, member: 1550"] My autistic (high functioning) son was not difficult, but he did have some quirks and one was that he didn't see the need to be clean. His attitude, in his Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) way was, "I'll just get dirty again anyway." We had to force him to shower, although now he tries to keep up his cleanliness better at age 2f...lol. Hey, that's autism for ya. Another reason would be depression. Yet another, that is mentioned in red flags for drug abuse, is...drug abuse. But these are kids who used to care about their hygiene and suddenly don't. Same with depression. More likely to be a different wiring in the brain if it has always been this way...such as autistic spectrum disorder. [/QUOTE]
