[quote=Anonymous]I wasn’t sure how to concisely title the subject of the thread, so I’ll try here!

DD12 is currently undergoing a skin treatment on her upper body, including face. It is a topical solution that must be applied after she showers, and has to be rubbed in completely; it’s even dyed slightly so you can be certain you’ve rubbed it in thoroughly, and if you don’t, it sort of oxidizes and leaves a stain. She needs help properly applying it to harder to reach areas. I was letting her do the other areas herself but she wasn’t rubbing it in enough and was waking up with dyed skin. We decided together that she needs help. She isn’t so much embarrassed to have me help her, but she hates the TIME it takes for me to properly rub it in, just wants to get dressed, and it turns into a huge fight every evening. I’m exhausted. And we have five-ish more weeks of this.

I know she hates it, but it has to be done. I know she just wants to get dressed, but it has to be done. I know it takes time and it’s annoying and invasive, but it has to be done. I’d love any ideas on how to make this process more tolerable! Just so you have an idea, if she sits and just lets me do it without protest, it is over with in under a minute! [/quote]
