[quote=Anonymous]I don’t prompt my kids to shower - 15 year old showers at least once a day, and twice on am sports practice days, and the 11 year old showers once a day. They are both swimmers and play other sports, so they are used to showering a lot and they feel icky without at least one shower a day. This was their biggest gripe about summer camp - infrequent showers. I notice that their friends often skip showers in the 7-12 age group, when they are old enough to bathe on their own, but not yet teens who are self conscious about body odor. Hopefully those kids shower more as teens. I know a few who still don’t take showers regularly as teens and trust me, their classmates notice. Try to get them showering daily or at least 5 times a week before puberty hits. [/quote]
