[quote=Anonymous]At 11 she can probably get away with washing her hair once or twice a week if she isn't involved in vigorous athletics. But by 11 she should shower at least every other day. My DD is 8 and we are pushing for daily showers, mostly so she isn't noticeably stinky by the end of day two. If you can smell her, it is too late. As for "cleaning selected areas", unless you are living in an area with water restrictions, that is even more time than as quick shower or bath. Deodorant, lotions, perfumes, etc, only MASK odor. That can actually be worse, particularly for those who have allergies. My first impression of someone who reeks of scented products is that they are unwashed. [/quote]
