[quote=Anonymous]My 21-year-old son has very poor hygiene. I've tried to tell him gently over the years; however, he is a mix of nose bind/doesn't care. I have three other adult children who are all clean (19, 24, and 25); however, my teaching on proper body care appears to have escaped him. He is home from school for Thanksgiving, and after two nights of being home, the bedroom smells horrible. He just left to visit my former in-laws and did not shower or comb his hair. I couldn't make him turn back around to shower first so I am at a loss on how to address the situation with a grownup. He has an oblivious nature and does not understand that the world judges appearance. How do I convey that message appropriately for an oblivious adult to understand?[/quote]
