Sharing baths

Definitely well before that.

I wouldn't want my kids to have any memory of their sibling's naked body when they got older, even if they dont care now.

LOL, PS they will never care if they are young kids. We are not talking about preteens here.

Have we really gotten this prudish? They’re siblings, it’s not a huge deal!

I see it as showing respect to children. It's part of teaching them body autonomy. That is in no way prudish.

Yes, when they become uncomfortable I agree but until then that is absolutely ridiculous to think it is wrong.

It has nothing to do with being prudish but everything to.do with the right to privacy and the right to body autonomy

I’m all for privacy and body autonomy when they want it, but she was saying that her kids don’t actually want privacy, she just doesn’t want them to have the memory when they’re older. That’s just a little weird to me.

I think baths are disgusting. I can't imagine shared baths. Gross.

They're never too young to be taught body autonomy.

I stopped sharing baths when my two girls started to fight with each other and make the bathroom floor look like a monsoon hit it, so about four and six.

What do you think body autonomy means? Because "you have to be modest" isn't it.

Teaching a child body autonomy means teaching children their body belongs to them. Part of that is respecting their privacy. Solo baths at a young age are a good start.

She is teaching her children body autonomy. Body autonomy is making decisions for your own body, she is allowing her children to make those decisions instead of forcing decisions on them.
