I took a bath with my son until he was about 3, teaching him to hold his breath in the bath tub, cuddling with him, etc. Parents should teach their children that the human body is not ugly and it is not evil or sinful. It is the things that we do with it that are. I do not find anything inappropriate about a parent bathing with his/her child if it is done in the right heart and spirit. We are to start teaching our children from their first breath and nudity/sexuality is something that was given to us by God. It is not ugly. It is very beautiful if it is done GOD'S WAY.

Bathing with 2 yo
I would definitely put a stop to it-- even if it is innocent. Children need to learn about the body but they also need to learn MODESTY-- something horribly lacking in this day and age. She is way to young to be seeing things she shouldn't. The daughter comes first-- so if hubby doesn't agree to stop it, I would report HIM!

Bathing with 2 yo girl
If he is her father and he did not care enough about you to marry you but got you pregnant, I'd really be worried. Obviously, the sex part means more to him than a real relationship. I would get rid of him ASAP. Is he going to do this when she is 15??? Good grief!

If bathing is so important to him
then he could wear some swim trunks in the tub with her. I stated that in my last post also. He would still have the bonding time with her but would be covered so she wouldn't be exposed to that. That was also an idea that was posted by another poster that her brother does I think.

On the bathing with child issue down below,
why have all of the posts been deleted that didn't see anything wrong with bathing with your own child? I posted a couple of messages and they are gone, as well as the other posters who said they didn't see anything wrong with it?

I'd hit mine just getting in my bathing suit. nm

bathing trunk nevus. Learn something NEW all the time.
