When he left to go out of the country, our D24 came for a scheduled visit right after. Once she left, I cleaned the linens and vacuumed her room. That was end of May. He came back from being abroad at the beginning of August. He began sleeping in her room, And I never washed the sheets. So for almost four months he slept on gross, dirty sheets. He never asked me to wash and if he did, I would have told him no. Laundry for his clothes, was more for me because of the anxiety. I can shut her bedroom door. Once she was coming home, I announced she’d be home as he tried to leave for work last week, and once I got up I changed the bedding for her to use that night.

This behavior of not caring about clothes or sheets my T attributes to being in the mind of a teen. They are I. Their own fog and really don’t notice surroundings. I can totally agree, as he used to be very particular about how the how looked.
