How long does your kid shower for? My son is 20 +minutes!

So intrigued to see so many people mention ADHD here.

My teen girls do this too. Drives me crazy. They claim it’s for all their skin and hair care products. It’s a fight I have stopped picking.

I just can't believe that so many people responded seriously to this.

We’ve had issues with mildew, paint peeling, cabinets and doors peeling and the bathroom actually falling apart. Both DD and DS can easily spend 30+ min in the shower. We’ve tried installing better fans, reminding them to put on the fan, asking them to not take as long but nothing seems to work. DH yells a lot about the state of the bathroom. I get aggravated too. One is leaving for college in a year and we will remodel when they both go to college.

So no real good advice here.

This has to be a troll.

He’s jerking it nice and slowly

Assuming you meant to say "a day" instead of a week?

5 minutes max. He has no stress in his life. He lucky I don't make him turn off the water, scrub, and then turn it back on.
Water is included in our rent, but I could lie to him.
My two boys know my old school/old country expectations.They are careful with money also.
We have a cousin who takes two hour showers. The parent thinks they just love long showers. Sure.

Not possible to thoroughly get clean in 5 min, unless they are racing and using a high-flow shower head.

Sounds more like OCD rather than forgetting they are in the shower.

About 10 minutes, Sometimes less.
