[quote=Anonymous]7 minutes is an insanely short period of time to shower. Timed 7 minutes? I imagine that's what prison is like! Your father certainly wasn't banging on the pipes after 7 minutes. If he was, that's not a normal childhood if you're living in a region that doesn't have water conversation problems or not living on a tight budget and needed to watch water and water heating bills. If the whole family is sharing one bathroom, it would make sense, but you didn't indicate that. My husband takes 15 to 20 minute showers. He has short hair and doesn't shave his legs either. He's not wasting time in there either. He lathers up, gets everything clean, and rinses very well. My showers are about 15 minutes when I'm not shaving. I never paid attention to how long my children took, but they were more towards the 20 to 30 minute range. Let her be a fairy dancing under a waterfall. She's a child. It's her childhood. Wake her up earlier if she needs more time.[/quote]
