Charlie mom tries to tell him the importance of: Brushing his teeth, showering, washing his face and the up keeping of his attire. But, like most children he does not listen the on-going speech goes in one ear and out the other a term the older adults use.
When he gets home, he tells his mother he has learned his lesson: hygiene is much more important than he realized! From now on, he will be well groomed and dressed in clean clothes- NO more "Funky Charlie." Charlie's bad day shows how essential self-care and hygiene are for young adolescents.
