I have been blessed with a boy after 4 girls. As such, many issues have never come up. My 4yr old is bathing with my 21 mth old boy. He gets on her back and starts riding her and then switches to her front. I have mentioned that it's not safe as he can fall and it's not tznua. Wwyd?

Touching each other in the bath is not appropriate, no matter what age.
I have my little ones sitting at the 2 corners & no touching allowed.

I always used to bathe my siblings together and it was no problem at all (obviously only when they were young)

This is a personal thing. If both kids are happy playing in the bath together and they are so little then it's up to you to decide if you feel it's appropriate or inappropriate.

This is a safety issue.

The bathtub is for sitting, period. If they can't follow that rule then I would switch to showers or a quick sponge bath.

My mother did this too Wink Just put them on a fresh pair of underpants. We did this with same gender kids that were a little older too. But once this little boy is over two I think you'll have to bathe them separately anyway.
