Jesus commanded people to take care of children. Not to neglect them.

Also, littlest kid is 2.5, so do I even need one of these things anymore?


I take it up every time it is used and it never gets gross and they last for year's. This is cleanliness 101.


I have 4 year old twins. I also take i up every time it is used. I turn it over so that the suction cups are facing up and drape it over the edge of the bathtub. I put it back down just before I turn on the water. Actually we make a game of it. I put it down, we all get in the tub (it's a big soaker tub in our master bath) and we walk around the edge singing ring around the rosie. After we go around twice (they fuss if we only go once) we all get out and I run the water.

We put down the mat when they were 1 and it is still pretty clean. I spray with bathroom cleaner and wipe it down about once every 6 months or so. It still looks like it did when we first used it after 3 years.


I am having trouble picturing this soaker tub so big that an adult woman is walking circles in it.

I'm also having trouble picturing an adult woman dumb enough to teach her children lessons about walking around in bathtubs.
