[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh, my toddler has eczema so we don't use soap until the end.  She also likes to chew on the bottom her shoe, so I figure some bath water probably isn't the grossest thing she's ingested that day.[/quote]

Exactly this.

I wouldn't want to drink bath water, but the level of disgust here is a tad overplayed.  My kids do much grosser things every day, despite my warnings and being otherwise great kids.  Kids are kids are kids.  If drinking bathwater is your biggest problem...[/quote]

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised by the level of disgust as well.  It's not clean granted, but if my bathtub is cleaned regularly, the kid is not exceptionally dirty (i.e., not rolling around in the mud all day), and you're not putting a poopy butt in there (do people do that??), the amount of body grime is pretty diluted by the amount of water, right?  Am I missing something or is my tolerance for grossness just different from the DCUM norm?[/quote]

Agree. We tell our 2.5 year old "yuck." Or, "doesn't it taste better out of the tap?" But this so doesn't seem like the biggest of deals to me... It's just a little bit gross. Nothing worse than that.[/quote]
