To think this is weird

[Laurenmclovely]

Basically my mum sent a video to the family WhatsApp of them both in the bath. I just think that it's highly inappropriate for them to still be bathed together! I mean surely there's an age where it just becomes creepy? I wouldn't bathe my 8 month old with a sibling at that age. I might just be over reacting but it's just really creeped me out !

Sorry that was meant to say my niece and nephew still bathing together. He is 8 and she is almost 2

Video of who in the bath?

Both of who?

You realise none of us know your family?

An 8 year old and a 2 year old in the bath together isn't creepy. It's weird you think it is.

Oh. But it’s just a family WhatsApp it’s not on FB or anything? Don’t see the issue.

Bathing together is fine.

Filming it is beyond weird. Sending it around is even weirder. Creepy weirder.

If I also had children I'd be cutting contact.

He's 8 and you think it's a problem for him to see his baby sibling naked? Or the other way round?

Not weird or creepy at all. YABVU

Do you think the 8 year old would have inappropriate thoughts about his 2 year old sister?

Cross post! I know I was bathed with my younger brother- and cousins, depending on who was around at that age - but after that I would definitely have wanted some space and privacy. Depends on the child I think

Eh? what's weird about it?

You start to realise what the term 'professionally offended ' means with threads like this.

I just think that it's inappropriate for them to be sharing a bath when he is 8! I know it was only to family but it's just the fact of the age gap and the fact they're of the opposite sex

It would be weird if the video was your mum & Dad in the bath together

You are weird for thinking an 8 month old and a 8 yo in the bath is weird. Same for a 2 and 8 yo. As long as they're happy and comfortable it's fine.

What's weird is that your mum took a video of it and shared it.

Creepy? Are you actually serious? It's you who is weird and creepy for thinking anything of this. Yabvu

No, not creepy to me. Not sure what my age limit would be. Two teens would be creepy.

I bath with DD 3. Is that creepy? My mum has seen me naked a fair bit as an adult, is that creepy?

I don’t think it’s inappropriate.

Why inappropriate? In what specific way?

I think the fact that you think two siblings bathing together is creepy is much more alarming than the bathing. Why on earth is it creepy?

An 8 and 2 year old? You are the weird one, there is nothing in the slightest wrong with that

I thought it was a what's app of your parents bathing together, that would have been weird

Why is it inappropriate? They're children having a bath together, playing in the water.

I think MN has gone a bit batshit this morning.
