It's not to the point that it will stop him from going, but he's still a bit anxious about it. Quite honestly by now it may be more of a matter of him realizing that it's not the end of the world if someone does happen to walk past and catch a very brief glimpse of him. Does anyone have ideas for how to help him get to that point? Thank you all so much for your helpful ideas!
Your child shows signs of generalized anxiety. It is not within the realm of normal concerns to be ruminating about a potential centimeter gap in a shower curtain. I say this as someone trying to help, you may wanna look for other areas in which he is having other anxieties because The earlier you teach him tools to address these ruminating thoughts, the better.
