A point for every time he brushes his teeth. 5 points for a gold star. And with 2 gold stars he can trade in for a bj.

Does your husband not bathe?

So, people who bathe also always brush their teeth and people who don't brush their teeth regularly don't bathe?

I don't think it should matter how old your boyfriend is. If you're boyfriend is old enough to date, he should be brushing his teeth on his own without a reward.

Sorry, if he was raised by his mother, she failed to do her job properly. You should consider getting a new boyfriend.

It's not the parents fault about hygiene! I grew up with no water in our house or tooth brushes to clean my teeth! We just couldn't be as clean. As soon as I Moved out on my own I knew what to do! It's not how you were raised it's what you think of yourself!

I don't know about that. At my ex-husband's parents' house, there were all sorts of toothbrushes and such in the bathroom, and I swear in the 6 years of being with him I never saw a family member brush his/her teeth, nor did the toothbrushes ever change. It became obvious that oral hygiene, while they had the supplies, wasn't a priority there. Blegh.
