Mum sends five 'stinky' kids to school because skipping baths 'wont kill them'

A mum with seven kids says she happily skips bathing her children daily and sends them to school 'stinky' as skipping a bath 'won't kill them'.Handing out parenting advice, Aussie mum Constance Hall admitted she doesn't have time to wash her brood every day due to their demanding schedule, reports the Mirror.In a bid to save time, the blogger said she doesn't mind if her five children and two step kids go to school 'smelling' and on some busy mornings she will let them eat with their hands so she doesn't have to do the dishes.In a post on Mama Mia, she said: "They don't have to bath or shower every day.

They can quite often skip that part of the routine if it's getting everyone down. I'm like, 'Fine, stinky, go to school and gross everyone out'."I personally can't be f***** bathing everyone every night."Constance backed up her decision by quoting research from the American Academy of Dermatology that suggests youngsters aged between six and 11 only need to bathe once or twice a week unless they are dirty, sweaty or have a skin condition."I know it makes them look more loveable when they are all clean and smell fresh, but really, skipping a night bath or morning shower a couple of times a week won't kill them," she added.Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click 'Join Community'.We also treat our community members
