[quote=Anonymous]OP, one of the best parenting moves I ever made was to lock in the (pretty much) non negotiable daily evening shower when the kids were still young enough to do what I said. Sometimes if they were sick they skipped, or if they were really tired they might do a "rinse off" only, but establishing the routine was super important. My older son was dumbfounded at the number of stinky teens who did not shower every day when he started traveling with classmates in high school. Like using after shave instead or counting "swimming in the lake" as a bath. If your daughter is running out of time because her hair is long, get her a shower cap to use every other day. But now is the time to enforce this behavor.[/quote]
