you probably don't actually remember that, you just saw a picture of yourself as a child being bathed and so you've adopted it as a memory. no one can remember being that young though.

a 3 year old wouldn't fit in a sink. you were walking by then i'm sure, why would she bathe you in the sink at that age. she wouldn't even be able to get your head under the tap of a sink.

The old fashioned sinks were big and could easily accomodate a 3 year old. As for remembering that young, I remember the Queen's coronation and I was only 3 at the time.

we had a big Belfast sink back then and it was probably when we had all the powercuts due to strikes back in the day

How Nice

Its ridiculous.
The sort of people who fear things like this are the same sort of people who think the world is full of monsters lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce on innocents.

We were in France a couple of years ago and a friend of ours came over with his two year old son. We all went swimming in a popular lake and he took a video of his little boy paddling naked in the water. When he showed it to his ex partner she hit the roof and accused him of putting their child in danger of sexual predators.

to be fair i think it's better to be more cautious. i think child molestation is more common than you realize.

If both dad and mum are at ease with the children bathing with either of them then that's up to them. As soon as the children can wash themselves then there's no need for mum or dad to do it. Being naked round your kids (whilst they are young) helps them not to be ashamed of nakedness when they are older.

The issue appears to be him washing her arse and other parts...

I find this completely ridiculous. Why should this be seen as anything sexual? I bath with Skye (as she goes mental if we try to put her in alone) and with James (as tbh he thinks he is a fish and its easier to keep his head out of the water when I'm actually in there ) and not once have I EVER thought anyone could possibly see it as anything more than what it is...a parent washing her kids.

Is this really the stage we are at now where paedo is screamed when a father takes care of his kid? I can't get my head round it at all and this may well be a pointless thread but I had to let it out. Honestly this seems just as stupid as those who think breastfeeding is in someway sexual :S

Absolutely ridiculous.

I can see the argument when it comes to step parents, but their own dad is just PC gone mad.

With all these scandals of older men sexually assaulting kids it's started entering people's heads that all men are paedophiles, especially Fathers are getting accused of it a lot.

I personally find it disgusting that these accusations are allowed tbh, but you know how idiotic the Human Race can be sometimes, uneducated and paranoid.

Yeah, it's kind of like how there was a time people felt "gay" was synonymous with "pervert". It's out of control.

Funnily I bathed with my daughter but not my son, mind you with him being 2nd it just made sense to put them in together.
there wouldn't be much room would there with a bloke in?

If I put my two in together they would be trying to drown each other

Our setup is me and son, partner brings daughter up and swaps them over, he drys/dresses son, then comes and gets daughter drys and dresses her while I dry myself
