Do your kids bathe every day?

Yes, but why is your question directed to moms only?

Once our kids were out of diapers, we stopped the daily baths. When they were still crapping in their pants, it seemed necessary. Now, it's when they're dirty. I also don't shower every day.

So all these teachers who "know". How? You ask each kid every day?

Just because they don't know with certainty with every individual kid doesn't mean they haven't noticed overall trends in the data. If a kid is regularly smelly, there's certainly a good chance s/he doesn't have regular showers.

True. Former teacher here. One day a kid smelled so bad I was gagging. My colleague and I were dumbfounded. We sent him to the clinic to call home to ask for some clean clothes. The smell was so horrid I could not be near him! Please parents, have your kid bathe or shower daily and use new clothes!

That's gross. I hope you and your kids don't swim in the same pool we do.

I hope my kids' teachers have better logic than this. You can't tell who bathes every day because if a kid smells fine, you have no idea if they are bathing every day or not. Assuming that you know which kids bathe every day because some kids smell bad is just....illogical.

In ES, my kids took 3 baths a week. We had a routine - Friday, Wednesday, Sunday. When they started playing real sports, they showered daily. Of course now my little boy is a camp counselor out in Colorado where he camps for 10 days and does not shower until he has a day off after that 10 days...

I really wonder what kind of insane OCD type shit these clean lunatics are fostering in their kids. It’s def the same people who come on here asking about anxiety in children. If you act like an uptight psycho at all times, your kids are likely to become anxious. Small children are not adults who have just been to a Bikram class. If yours truly smell bad after 24 hours, you should see an endocrinologist or nutritionist. If not, you might consider that telling them they are filthy and will become ill if they don’t fully sterilize every 24 hours may have negative psychological effects.

And you feel that smell was cause by one day of not bathing? FFS.

+1. The absence of logic is depressing.
