I bathe my kids every other night. I wash their sheets once per week. It works just fine.

Seriously. My kids just don't get so dirty as to necessitate a daily bath every single day. Even when they are playing outside, they are not exactly rolling around in piles of literal dirt. They clean their hands and faces multiple times a day and when the day is done, they take off their dirty clothes and put on PJs. They don't smell because their clothing is clean. It seems like people think that but for a nightly bath routine, all children would be covered in grime.

Newsflash: your kids stink. Not adult BO odor, but outside, sweaty kid odor.

Stop smelling my kids, ya weirdo.

My kids take baths twice a week in the winter, and up to daily in the summer heat, and we change sheets once a week or so. Bathing too often, especially for kids, strips the skin of oils, which are actually very important for protection against bacteria and various other yucky things.

They do wash their hands and faces a lot, we don't wear shoes in the house, etc.

On the days when they roll around in the sandbox etc., yes, they get a bath.

But don't take it from me, take it from the Internet doctors:

Sorry, but they stink, and calling someone who has never met you nor your kids a weirdo doesn’t change that. If you prefer they are musty instead of washing and putting on lotion, more power to you. But they stink, and you are delusional if you don’t think so. It’s a choice that you are allowed to make.

But your unwashed kids smell like…unwashed kids. You don’t need to defend your practices, but that is reality.

NP here. No, they really don’t stink. We have noses, too. Saying something over & over again doesn’t make it true.

Yeah, they do smell. You can’t smell it but it smells like musty puppies.

+1. This. “Musty puppies” is kind. I’m a daycare teacher and the little ones smell like urine. One toddler in our room had such a bad smell it was hard to cuddle her.

Hyperbole.

You don’t know very many people then.

Interestingly, I do know many people and many parents - more, I would wager, than you. And everyone bathes daily. My current employers wash their kids hair every night as well.

Do you bathe daily?

You clearly have never been exposed to a diversity of people. You may know many people in your own bubble but that doesn’t make you an expert in how everyone else lives.

Me! Every other night, sometimes every third in the winter works for us, sometimes every night in the summer if they got very sweaty or covered in sunscreen head to toe. It’s what the pediatrician and dermatologist recommends.

I wash the sheets once a week.

Disgusting. Children have bowel movements, urinate many times a day, they perspire, and at the end of the day they stink! They also sleep better if they are clean. When young they were bathed everyday, clean clothes every day, and sheets changed every week. There are tons of moisturizing soaps so stop using "dry skin" as an excuse for being too lazy to keep your children clean!
