Really so now we are cutting corners on bathing? Are you anti-bathing parents aware that even parents in developing nations bath their children daily!  Please wash your kids daily and stop using  the dry skin excuse. We have too many options for lotions and body oils you can even make your own natural body lotion. I do feel bad for your kids teachers.  For those who skip out on showers where are you from? [/quote]

It's really not true that "even parents in developing nations" bathe their children daily. If you're really interested, look up the stats on which developed countries and cultures feel the need to bathe every day.

And check out what the American Academy of Dermatology says: https://www.aad.org/public/skin-hair-nails/skin-care/child-bathing
Kids ages 6-11 do not need a daily bath unless they swim or do sports or get really dirty otherwise.

It's fine if you want to bathe your kids daily. It's a nice ritual. But its also fine and healthy for others of us not to. There's just no need to. For the record, I'm Asian American and not from an undeveloped area.[/quote]
