[QUOTE="HopeRemains, post: 558840, member: 14139"] Great idea about salt/sugar scrubs and oils. As a matter of fact these are they types of things I create for my at home business. Making him his own may help him WANT to clean better in the shower. He loves it, especially if I let him help. I don't think it is a fear of contamination. It started when he was young with the hands down the back of his pants, all the time. I have seen him more than once sniff and taste, then spit. Ugh. I might think it was a sexual issue, but I've never seen any other indicators of that. The preventative measures I use are to make him come straight in from school and go every day. That did help. With summer we got a bit off schedule so it needs to be reimplemented full force. The consequences are that he has to clean everything up. For about a month, not long ago, he started leaving some sort of smear, etc, every single time he used the toilet, so it went from cleaning up his mess to cleaning up his mess AND having to clean the entire bathroom. Sometimes the bathroom got cleaned more than once a day. That stopped that for the most part within the week. JJJ- I cannot tell you how badly my heart dropped when I read your reply. I know there has been physical abuse in the past and there is definately emotional abuse, but there have never been signs of anything sexual. If I had to guess, I would say no, I don't think there is sexual abuse going on at biomom's. But I just don't know. She's got severe issues- I don't really put anything out of her reach. I'd never even considered it before and I'm sick to my stomach right now.... [/QUOTE]
