[quote=Anonymous]Oh how easy it is to jump to conclusions. if we did not regulate her she would take 20 minute showers. there are 4 of us who need to shower and get on our way every morning. if each one took 20-30 minute showers the 4th person would be SOL and very unhappy.

The girls (twins) use the shower in our master bedroom. The shower is entirely glass and can easily be seen from the bed where I am usually reading the "paper" on my Nexxus every morning. When we noticed she was hogging all the hot water I decided to watch from my bed (bifold doors between bathroom and bedroom are rarely closed and toilet area is a completely separate area with door) to see what on earth is taking her so long. That is when I noticed her just standing there in a daze in another world and not really showering.

I think a shower is for getting clean in the morning while a bath in the evening is for relaxing. She has that option but she prefers the morning shower.

We are getting ready for some changes which will be necessary when school starts. last year we weren't as concerned about time because her sister had to be at school half an hour later but this year they will both be walking out he door at the same time which is 7: 45.
