Do your kids take baths together or separately? That's the question we asked our panel of experienced parents. We wanted to know if and when our group of moms and dads thought it was cool to go two-up in the tub. When do children outgrow this interpersonal hygiene? Find out how these parents handle siblings at bath time. Opinions start at "play." DadLabs Ep. 302 The Lounge. This episode is brought to you by Boon.
DADDY BRAD Welcome back to the Tiniest Bar in Texas in beautiful downtown Austin. I'm Daddy Brad.
DADDY CLAY And I'm Daddy Clay. This is the show which our expert panel takes on. And that's Owen. This is where our expert panel tackles important parenting issues of the day. The show is brought to you by Boon. Their modern design is perfect for modern homes, modern parents. Daddy Brad, what's the subject for today?
DADDY BRAD The subject today is - Do you let siblings bathe together?
MAN 1 The two girls, easy, no problem at all. You know, put them in the tub. Makes it a whole lot easier. You can play, you have fun. They can entertain each other a little bit.
LADY 1 Your question implies that there aren't people walking around naked in general in our household right? So, right cause what could be the issue?
DADDY CLAY They're like "Hey, yours is different than mine." And that happens in the tub.
OWEN Yes.
DADDY CLAY Good. I think that's a net positive right?
LADY 1 I have a husband who tends to like to get completely naked to go to the bathroom. They're gonna see that naked, I don't see why they shouldn't get naked in the bath.
LADY 2 I think it's fine. They need to get to know each other's sexual parts.
DADDY BRAD I've got 2 and 4 and a half and they still bathe together and play. But now the 2 year old is ambulatory enough and she's grabbing the penis.
OWEN Woah.
MAN 2 It's a big competition between us on who's gonna do it cause neither of us want to. One will go off and take two kids and that way the other person can go and do something more rewarding with their time like watching television.
DADDY CLAY So, you're not fighting over who gets that precious bath time?
MAN 2 No, again, why would you?
DADDY CLAY They're cute, they're playing together in the tub. They've got toys.
MAN 2 Really? Is that the whole thematic concept of DadLabs, that we're supposed to actually like our kids?
DADDY BRAD One thing you do have to think about is when you have siblings of different genders and different ages, at what point do you kind of yank the oldest one out and bathe them by themselves?
OWEN 16.
MAN 1 You take the cues from the kids. And when they feel uncomfortable and they're at that point where they don't really want to share, they you know it's over.
DADDY CLAY Do you think you do 50% of the bath time?
MAN 2 I do about 10% of the bath times?
DADDY CLAY How do you get that gig?
MAN 2 Well, she also has to do most of the laundry and cooking. So that kind of evens things out that way.
DADDY BRAD Do you have sex ever with your wife?
MAN 2 No.
DADDY CLAY In the shower with adults, or do you ever have the children in the shower with you?
OWEN Yes, totally.
DADDY BRAD Cause you gotta get the kids clean quicker. Now your neighbors, different story.
OWEN Yeah, that's true. Like I've gotten in the tub with Arden but I probably wouldn't get in the tub with Arden's friends. That's probably a no-no until she's in college.
DADDY CLAY Poop in the tub?
DADDY BRAD No, I never poop in the tub.
OWEN I would say the kid that poops in the tub has to stay in the tub. The other sibling can get out. That's a rule. You learn.
DADDY CLAY You make them fish it out of the tub?
OWEN I don't like poop.
DADDY BRAD You don't like poop?
OWEN Not when it mixes with water.
DADDY CLAY I don't either.
DADDY BRAD Hey, I got this video you boys ought to watch.
