  • Great! Thanks for your idea! And yes, I keep forgetting that it's no longer me who can really motivate him. Just very new to me as we always have been very close. But some reward system might work...maybe through the back door? I'll come up with something, I'm creative.
  • Thanks for that. I will think about some extrinisic motivation that doesn't seem to come directly from me and see what happens. He really struggles to motivate himself I can see that and understand so well. That's why I try to help wherever I can.
  • Well said. I'm just trying to get this message to be understood by my son. He is so scared that people will look and laugh at him so he doesn't want to try. Any ideas how to convince a 16-year-old if example hasn't worked so far?
  • + yes the fun of having the choice to buy clothes you like - not finding anything because shops run out of nice things in small sizes very quickly so stuff is always too large
  • Feel free to add me... Need motivated people to keep me going.
  • Me too. Support is always helpful.
