Sixteen yr old g.son staying overnight - has just come out of shower - will have another one before he goes to college in morning. BIG difference between morning and evening shower - after morning shower - everywhere smells like a whore's handbag!!!!!!!!! At least what I imagine it would smell like - prefers Boss aftershave (now shaves once per week). Have much sympathy for teachers facing class of teenage college boys all reeking with aftershave - come to think of it a class full of girls reeking of various perfumes! Ann

At least he's realised he smells. My brother didn't get that message till he was 17. The number of times I heard my Dad threaten to throw him in the shower/bath fully clothed!!!!! Joy

It's a temporary measure. Is he suffering from the dreaded acne? That could be the reason. Wants to stay clean before sweating at night.

You have a 13 year old male who WANTS to shower?? Just a thought, but given his age and time of night, does he wants clean sheets as well? Hormones being hormones and all. Jess........one of my sons calls deodorant 'shower in a can'.

Silly question but why can't he have a shower? Is it cos its late? I'd have been right chuffed if my Bro had worried about how he smelt at anytime of the day at that age!! LOL!!
