Question: Not showering!?

Answers:
You need to tell her in a kind way that she stinks, you will do her a favor in the long run!. It sounds to me, that she is ignorant about personal hygiene and needs to be told asap!. Her life will not be a happy one, unless she changes her showering habit, instead of once a week, you need to let her know that a cultured person showers daily and makes sure they don't offend anyone with BO!. Does she use Deodorant etc!. You may need to educate her, which will not be easy!. Be kind and caring and you will have helped her more then she will ever know!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

She may be depressed!. One of the things depressed people don't do is take proper care of themselves!.
Adolescents tend to have greasier hair, skin and have overactive apocrine glands, the sweat glands that cause you to smell!. Her self-esteem may be so low that she doesn't think that she is worth taking care of herself, that no one likes her anyway!.
She may need some peer group encouragement as well as some counseling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If he is a normal 13 year old boy, my guess is that he has other things on his mind that are more important, but Americans do tend to over shower- no person needs to take a shower more than every other day, unless he or she works out and is all sweaty :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

mabye they arent perspiring!.!? Or mabye they dont feel not clean!. Mabye hygeine isnt their biggest priority!.

i hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
