Stepdaughter teen has terrible hygiene issues and I need advice

Michelle jean's picture

Stepdaughter is a sweet girl who I get on with well. Her hygiene is terrible. Her mother has not educated her and I'm struggling with it. 13 , hates to shower, hair stinks and looks greasy and knotted. Her underwear is regularly soiled so obviously can't wipe her bottom properly. Bedroom is so dirty and smells the house out. Have tried to express my concerns to my husband who is not helping any of this stuff. He's a beautiful soft man who won't discipline re mess.. showering.. and is totally oblivious despite me raising over 4 years.
