ITA about teaching them to do their own laundry. My 15 yr old does his and it cuts way down on the stress for everyone. Except him. 
He sees it as a completely unnecessary chore that does noting but "waste his time and wear out his good clothes". Ummmmm... yeah, because if you wear them over and over and never wash them, they never wear out.
I dunno. The 15 yr old is fully aware of girls and even has a "girlfriend" (I use that term loosely), and he is only concerned with creating the illusion of cleanliness by layering on stinky old spice shower gel and matching deodorant. But the face is still dirty and don't even get me started on the ears!
