Son’s friend smells awful

[ivegotdreadfulpmttoday]

My son’s friend comes to our house regularly and occasionally stays over. They are 15/16. He has terrible BO - I have asked him if he wants a shower when he is here but he says he isn’t comfortable showering anywhere but at home. I need to get the message across though. I spent a large part of yesterday washing everything he had sat on as he had left his smell on everything. The bed he slept on stank through a heavy mattress protector to the mattress. My son says the boys house is awful too. I don’t know if they have a washing machine. His mother has health problems. He is a very overweight boy so it’s not even as if he can “borrow “ some of my son’s clothes while I “accidentally “ wash his. WWYD?

Best thing to do is to call school and ask to speak to the designated safeguarding lead - it is neglect to an extent if his clothes aren't being washed. There isn't much you can do which is a shame but if he isn't washing/his clothes aren't being washed then his parents may need some extra help and the safeguarding team at the school may be able to help with this.
