my daughter isnt anywhere near being able to bathe herself at 6. She can do a few things if im right there prompting her the whole time. But she gets rather frustrated.

My mom quit helping me bathe way too soon and never really taught me proper hygeine habits because of her modesty.

I have no idea how parents have kids that are bathing themselves by 4 or 5 years old. Hell you have to stay on top of your teenagers about how to properly brush their teeth.

So i think 90% of the responses are from people who don't have kids. I never thought i'd still be helping my child bathe or clean up sometimes at the toilet by now. Sometimes things arent how we planned or thought they would be because we didnt have any kids when we were coming up with these ideas.
