Sometimes my 15-year-old daughter stays with my sister's family since it's in the same school district. I suspect from things I've heard that when she's staying there, my sister asks her to bathe with her 6-year-old son. I don't have an inherent problem with this since it's family and I don't hear anyone complaining, except my husband. When I let this slip he wanted a big confrontation about it. I certainly don't want that to happen. I don't even want to ask my daughter about it since it doesn't seem like any of my business. I hope she would just stand up for herself if there was a problem.
What can I say to reassure him it's just my family.

ok, to be honest this does sound just a tad weird.... I am an open minded person prety much when it comes to the body... I dont worry much about being modest in my home, up to a point, but I have raised all boys... but, in this day and age, as much as I hate it, I really do think the 15 yr old is a little old to be bathing with such a young boy... and, Dad has a good reason to feel the way he does, because he is a Dad and that is his little girl... he is just as much intitled to his feelings as you are when it comes to raising ya'lls child.... you or she and even the Aunt and maybe even the 6 yr old boy may not find it unusual, but if Dad does, then maybe his feelings should be considered... and just maybe, at the age of 6 this little boy is getting just a little bit more of an anatomy leason than he needs ?? just think about it please ?? God bless

Do you know there is kids haven sex at 8 years old theses days. I'm not saying that's going on but even at 6 years old he know about the body. I think it is wrong you don't have to be all up in there face about it. Most of all don't make the kids feel they did something wrong. Just talk to your sister and say hay this is not something her dad likes. So if you want her to stay your going have to make sure she takes her bathes alone. If she loves you and kid she will be OK I get it.

You spund like the one with the problem family or not. Family??? OMG have you ever heard of "INCEST" stop allowing her to visit your sisters home if she has to bathe with a 6 year old child. Why is she doing that anyway? At the age of 6 a child can remember certain things that should not be one of them. That is gross lady....
