[quote=Anonymous]I'm at my wits end. My 8 year old DD has the nastiest hygiene and I have no idea How to fix this. Most importantly, she doesn't flush the toilet. Ever. Even for #2. She leaves every toilet in our house clogged with tons of paper and unfinished pee and feces. And she doesn't wipe well or wash her hands afterward either. Doesn't brush teeth without harassment. Just disgusting in general.  She dances and I am always finding skid marks in her leotards.

The worst part is she will go through great efforts not to do these things. She will wet her toothbrush and leave it unused in the bathroom so we think she brushes. I literally have to demand to smell her breath which is proof she didn't. When she doesn't flush she makes the effort to lift the seat up so we think it's her brother (who is 6 and fastidious about flushing and wiping). Why the effort when it's just easier to flush? Then she lies. And says she is "scared" to flush.

How do I remedy this? Scolding doesn't work. Forcing her to flush takes so much effort but it's truly disbursing to happen upon a nasty several hours old turd that makes their bathroom reek. Or even worse when she uses our master bathroom and we happen upon it.

What is going on?[/quote]
