Anyone have 9yr old girls (no SEN issues) who are reluctant to clean teeth, wash, wash face, wash hands after going to toilet, use deodorant etc?
I still have to wipe her bum after a poo as she can’t reach or do it!! (I have shown her time and time again but she ends up with poo all in her knickers even using moist wipes)
It’s driving me crazy every morning and evening we have the argument and ends up shouting to clean teeth and wash face, I often have to do it for her or it won’t get done. She runs out after having a wee not washing hands and when I say to do it she will quickly run water over her hands with no soap!
Getting her to shower/bath is a battle too.
She says ‘forgets’ to do these all things and apply stick deodorant but doesn’t forget other things.
She loves clothes/having her hair perfect/jewellery/bit of lip gloss etc so it doesn’t make sense!
