[quote=Anonymous] My teen DD would try to be nice and helpful and probably would say yes, it's fine and I can do that -- but she would actually be pretty embarrassed if she ended up seeing a kid naked by accident. Don't put your babysitter in that position even if she seems mature to you. Being mature at 13 does not automatically mean she is OK with supervising a kid who is bathing. She is probably just fine from the safety aspect of supervising but why put her and your son in a position where either would get embarrassed when it's just not essential? Can your son have quick morning showers before school during this time when you're working late? It might be a good excuse to start him on being flexible about whether he has an evening bath or a morning shower. It's good if kids can be OK with either as they get older, and as circumstances change.[/quote]
