At what age should a mother stop bathing her boy and washing his hair? I ask this because mine was late, at least I think it was.

Thats what I was gonna say .
I hope that you are referring to the hair on your head ... ?
That scared me.
Now that is what i would call odd
she should stop as has been said when he can do it for himself.
... probably some mum who wanted her son to stay a child forever.
:yes: Bathing is a one person deal. Unless you need help, such as you are physically incapble of doing things yourself, or if your having sex in the shower.
I would honestly get the mothers mental state checked out if she were doing it longer. It could be very disruptive on the childs wellbeing and their own mental state. Talk about causing an oedipus complex.
Or it could also cause the child to become so bored and desperate with life that they have nothing better to do than to spend all their time making up crap and posting it on a random internet message board.
Well, as long as it didn't bother you, then so what? But the fact that you asked in the first place arouses my suspicions that you are not that happy about it ... ?
:thumb:
Just seems like there was an age where she developed her own sense of privacy and stuff.
That i find weird.
My parents stopped bathing me when i was about 3/4 maybe. Obviously they still came an checked on me, but no actual washing. Maybe 10 when i started doing my hair.
If your mum did that to you till you were 17, well I guess it doesnt have to be innapropriate. only you and her will know if it was.
Saying that though I used to get in the bath with my Dad til I was about 10, didn't think it was strange at all...we used to wet bits of toilet roll and flick them onto the ceiling! lol!
We used to hope that a bit would fall onto someone while they were in the bath or on the loo.
And to the OP - why have you posted this question? I find it odd.
:yes:
I think hes trying to perve/troll.
As you do. Heck, that's what these forums are for these days. Or did I just make that up?
PS. JK.
:yes:
If that's what ya call it these days, then yes, I concur!
