[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When your DH picks up his DC, is it at the end of the day?  If so, my kids smell at the end of everyday.  12-16 is the worst.  Sometimes my 16 y.o. smells an hour after his last shower.

Does she seem clean otherwise?  Or is dirt building up?

Does your DH's ex have other children and/or help with your DH's DC?

If she is the sole caregiver of this child, kuddos to her - that is a very difficult row to hoe.  She may need more support.  Do you or your DH take her for the summer?  Most of the exes I know where one has moved a fair distance away, have the children live with one parent during the school year (with minimal visitation of the other parent- similar to your DH's) and split or vacations or have the children go to the other parent's house for the summer.

You answered some of my questions while I was typing.  It sounds more like neglect.  Can you and DH take his daughter fulltime?  If his ex doesn't see a problem, I don't know what else there is to do.[/quote]

ThankYou!
Dirt seems to be building up.  The fungus infection was a severe case.  My doctor said the medications she was on, it had to be a awful case and he even suggested neglect.
She has a nice (very nice support system).  She is remarried.  She has a nice support system.  She works, has a her family take her to school in the am and a sitter pick her up.  She is able to spend most of her weekend horse back riding.  She doesn't have any other children.  We have her for several week stretches in the summer.  The daughter doesn't do well if we go beyond a few days but we try.  After a few days, she cries and asks mom every minute of the day.  When you calculate the mom's time away from her during the day and on weekends she doesn't sound like she spends that much time with her.
