[quote=Anonymous]I am an immigrant and was an exchange student in the US many years ago (as a teen) and received child a child development degree in my home country. Showering every day was a rule that was presented to me as part of my exchange student orientation. It never came up as part of any child development course I took later in my home country. This makes me think it is very society-specific, and the U.S. rules have very much relaxed lately (e.g. it’s not a must to wear different pants or a sweatshirt every day; only the t shirt and underwear and sock must be changed daily). It’s all very cultural. Physically there is no danger in not showering daily. It might make you a social ostracism target though. [/quote]
