[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious, OP...did you do nightly baths when your kids were small?

I read a lot of people on this forum do them very infrequently when kids are little 2-3 times a week.

We have always done nightly baths since my kids were infants.  My oldest is only 8.5, but he and his brother look forward to a hot shower or bath right before bedtime.  It is just a routine that's embedded.

I'm curious if you did this or not.  I'm wondering if a kid never had to do it, but now he is stinking and wasn't in the habit and won't do it.  Or-- if they just gave it up as teens.

Frankly, I'm grossed out by a lot of DS friends that don't even shower after a hot and sweaty soccer match.  They just put their pjs on.  Granted-some of them may not physically stink yet at 8 (though my kid does in the pits already) it is gross not to wash that sweat off.[/quote]
OP here. Yes, we did bathe them every night as little ones. 
I think I may employ the hose when he arrives home tactic. [/quote]
