Hygiene Questions.

Everett, WA

My husband and I have a difficult time with Hygiene for our 12 year old son.
Brushing teeth, showers or baths, as well as washing his hair.
Any suggestions?

I definitely went through this CherHill. I would get so frustrated too, however I found that it was common with all boys, diagnosis or not. What I did, I made a social story for him. He seemed to respond well to it too.
