[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did I miss it? Did op ever reveal WHY her kid won't brush teeth? I'm betting it hurts the kids bc there's gingivitis/sensitive gums or a wiggly tooth that's sore or there's the onset of a cavity. Hence the kid's refusal to even try. Can you at least get him to swish around mouth wash? They make kid friendly types (with kid friendly flavors). At least that's something.[/quote] Op here, he won’t open up about why. So, there is either no particular reason. Just tired and doesn’t feel like it and all the incentives in the world won’t make him feel differently. Or, yes, I am aware he has one wiggly tooth. It could be that. I wish he would tell me. I tell him kindly that I am all ears. He used to like that phrase, but he is changing from a super sweet 6yo into and 8yo later this year. Time flies! Tonight he eventually did it. I sat with him and we both relaxed, and I just asked him one more time in a calm voice. He did it:) Thank you.[/quote]
