bath schedule?

Question

okay i know this sounds stupid but i hate taking baths and showers. my parents have a bath schedule that they keep on the refridgerator at home and it is like a calendar it has my name and my brothers and sisters names on it. every two or 3 three days my name is on it and it means that i have to have a bath that night. it is embarassing because my friends have see it. every night one or two of us is on it. i'm on there 3 times a week usually. once a week i usually take a shower and the other two nights a bath. anyway my parents don't lock the door and make it stay cracked open which is stupid and even though i am 3-4 years older then my little brother they check on me and sometimes come in for bathroom supplies. sometimes my brother is scheduled on the same day as me and when it his turn or my turn depending on the order he'll come in with my mom as i am rinsing off or i'll have to get in the bath while he is still drying off. how do i get more privacy?

i'm pretty small for my age but i'm 13

over the summer one night when my parents were going out and before the babysitter came she said we had to save time and she let my brother hop in the tub with me. i tried o tell her no but she didn't listen. i didn't care as much back then though.

Answer 1

This is sad. You are 13 and deserving of some respect and privacy. Your parents have issues if they don't understand that. Also, I'm a scheduler. I schedule everything. But with something as simple as the bath schedule you don't need to write it down. It is something that should be fairly easy to remember. Or find somewhere to post it so that visitors don't see it. Your parents seriously need to consider your feelings on this.

Answer 2

You need to talk to your parents about this. If the bathroom is so crowded that everyone needs a time slot for their shower, maybe they could just give you certain days without having them put on the schedule where everyone can see it. Also tell them that you are getting older now and really feel uncomfortable with people coming and going in the bathroom while you are in there. See if together you guys can work out something. I think at 13 you should be able to tell when you need a shower, which I would think would be at least every other day if not every day.

Answer 3

I have 4 children and other than the 5 year old, they get privacy when they take a bath or shower. They DO NOT get to lock the door though. Mainly because if they fall in the tub and knock themselves out, I want to be able to get to them. It should be everyone's right to have privacy in the bathroom.

Answer 4

Well, i think you should get privacy! I understand that it bothers you and its not right because you dont want others coming in when you are all naked! and I am sure that your parents would not like for you to come in when they are takin a bath! and i completely understand if you do not want to talk to your parents! sometimes they do not seem like they can help you out or understand how we feel! they are still stuck in their little world.. you know the old ages! but, you can try to take a bath before or after everyone has already take a bath, but do not argue with your parents because they take every little thing so seriously they feel like they want to kill you! so just try to do everything before every one! GOOD LUCK!

Answer 5

ask ur parents to put the schedule somewhere easy for u guys to see it, but not in the common areas where guests can see it... as for your privacy... good luck in a big household... do you want privacy because you are embarrassed with yourself?? maybe you should think of it that way... and get more accepting on your body and its changes... everyone goes through them and its ok and normal... if you need "bathroom" time to yourself, take it outside of your bath routine... maybe in the early mornings or sometime when the bathroom isn't usually occupied... and ask your parents if you can keep the door locked and have private time for xx amount of minutes... it may seem wierd but everyone takes alone "bathroom" time!!! and you are intitled to it

Answer 6

a lot of 13 year olds don't bathe themselves well. your parents want to make sure you are actually bathing rather than sitting in the bathroom with the shower on doing nothing.
i caught my stepdaughter doing it. at 13 she didn't bathe for a month! i litterally had to undress her and bathe her and she cried the entire time. how disgusting!!
13 year olds need to be clean. they have so many hormonal things going on. 2 or 3 a day would be o.k. with me because that hormonal change stinks.

maybe if your parents knew how disgusted with smelling nasty you felt , they would leave you alone to do it.

Answer 7

You're parents are creey dude, hate to tell you.

You need to put your foot down, and as grown up as possible state: I am growing up and I would appreciate more privacy and the ability to bath when I see fit. I am old enough to take care of my own hygiene, thank you. "
And demand a closed and locked door when you want to be in private.

Um. Craina C said he forced his 13 year old stepdaughter to strip and forced her to wash/ or washed her himself!!! OMG YOU are effin lucky charges aren't pressed against you. Sick MFer.

Prepubescent does not actually propose which you're immature, besides the undeniable fact that it does propose you're actually not an person or in line with risk a youthful person. What it fairly means is which you have not started into puberty yet, the place your physique changes and "issues" start to enhance and you get physique hair and so on. you will possibly have started showing some signs and warning signs yet could be not too a strategies alongside. i'm purely guessing, besides the undeniable fact that it sounds as though like your mom and dad have variety of set those actual changes as a guage for adulthood emotionally, too. wager what? that is not a bad properly-known. as quickly as we start to nature in our bodies, our minds do to and we start to make extra effective judgements approximately issues. that doesn't propose you're completely immature now and you're probable extra mature now than a 12 months in the past, yet putting a properly-known consistent with actual adulthood to not have a babysitter isn't undesirable. there is not any foolproof device yet that certainly one of fairness basic. with out understanding your age, that is confusing to tell in case you will possibly desire to be checked on, yet, lower back puberty might desire to be the guage. finally, I comprehend every person is diverse approximately modesty and it sounds as though such as you're mosedt and don't need your brother seeing your physique, yet don't be too overly modest because of the fact on your existence there will be many circumstances which you will not have each and all of the privateness you experience you like. besides the undeniable fact that, you could tell them extremely which you're modest and prefer some privateness whilst nude. wish this facilitates you!

Answer 9

Tell your parents that you would like the respect to please have more privacy, you understand about the bathing schedule, but you are old enough to bath yourself, and wouldn't like anyone to walk in on you.

I would never do that to my son... I'm sorry... you deserve privacy!
