[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 686351, member: 17542"] I so understand your tears about his teeth. I was very upset about Difficult Child's teeth too, yellow, not clean, etc. Now, he has applied for and has been accepted into an interfaith dental program in the community where he pays on a sliding scale. He hasn't asked for any money for this. They said it takes about a year to "get someone's teeth back to where they need to be." I don't know why they don't brush their teeth. Maybe it's just one more thumbing their noses at the "you need tos". I have no idea. One day, Lil, he will decide he wants his teeth to be clean again. Until then, the only alternative is to hold him down and brush his teeth twice a day and I don't know about you, but we usually don't have the energy for THAT! It can all change. But only until THEY want it to change. Everything else is a waste of time, emotion, money and energy. [/QUOTE]
