I want to know too... I so much love bathing my girl. She's such an amazing jewel. It's always fun and amazing throwing her up after birth and hearing her laugh out loud.

Bathing your daughter isn't the problem. How do you wash her private part without your hand touching there especially when she can't wash it herself?

A mother could equally ask at what age should mothers stop bathing their boys, and you get an idea of what the issue really should be. When doing things for your kids, you do it to teach then them how to do it for themselves eventually. The child should be able to let you know when he/she can do it for herself when that time comes, or at least that she would like to try it for herself then. lipsrsealed

He doesn't need to wash down there because it isn't necessary for her age. He can just splash water on it and that's all. The reason female adults wash down there is because of the things that go in there and of course comes out.

In my opinion, a 6 year old girl is old enough to bath herself. All you need to do is teach her basic hygiene and that's all.

Depends on lots of factors. Some 5 year olds can start learning how to wash their privates. But there are also kids of 7-8 years who still need help during bath time. Sadly, in a haste to get more things done, we sometimes don't start early to teach them (boys/girls) how bath properly.

I disagree with you. A female privates needs to be washed whether a baby, toddler, teen or full adult.

I'm not talking about using soap because it's not really healthy. How do you splash water on female privates? Is splashing water on male privates good too?

This isn't about soap— though use of mild soap is not out of place — but about teaching your kids to use their hands to properly wash themselves up and down there.
People sometimes compare the vagina to a "self-cleaning oven." Is that true? What about the vulva? Do you need to wash one or both?
GBU: You don't need to wash the vagina. That's the part that's very self-cleaning. That's what discharge is for. Discharge moves things towards the exit. Discharge helps maintain that specific pH and flora balance. If you wash your vagina with soaps or scented washes, you can throw off this delicate balance, which can lead to irritation and infections.

As for the vulva—which, again, is the external area of the genitals—debate surrounds this topic because there's a very prominent feminine hygiene industry that likes to try to sell you specific feminine washes. But like we said earlier, we don't need to be sticking any fragrances or soaps of any kind inside the vagina, because that can throw off pH balance and put you at risk for infections.
Kids need to be taught to wash themselves comfortably and thoroughly. lipsrsealed

And about claiming you raised 4 kids, some old men raised 12 kids, all of whom were never properly taught to adore and properly clean their bodies comfortably each day — no proper hygiene at all. So, haven raised x many kids does not make you right in this. undecided

A father should stop bathing his daughter at the same age he stops bathing his son: when they're old enough to do it by themselves.

Same goes for the mother.

I don't know why you people like complicating your lives unnecessarily

Should a father even bathe the children in the first place? Ok, fine. I know sometimes they need to help the wifes out with some chores but how about choosing to do other things while the mother handles that?

We are all girls and I don't think my father ever bathe any of us. My Mom always had her sisters around to help out besides my dad was a very busy man in his active days. So by 6am hes out of the house. weekends are his resting days after doing some major house cleaning which is not all the time. Na jobless man dey siddon for house dey find pikin wey him go baf.

Please let the women handle bathing of children.. if any man is itching to bathe his children let him go for the boys or forget about it altogether. There are other important things to help out with Biko.

Let's stop pretending like there aren't cases of fathers sexually abusing their daughters. In as much as such dastardly act exist, it is important to guard against it and prevent anything that may likely encourage it.

I said what I said.
