‘Every parent knows the epic battles that arise when trying to get your children into the bathtub and then trying to get them out of the bathtub.

‘They are two separate battles each time. “I just wanted to give parents permission to have fun with their kids this summer,” he told the outlet.

And he insisted he still bathes his children after they get out of the pool, saying it was “really funny that people take it so seriously.”

According to the American Academy of Dermatology AssociationChildren ages six to 11 should bathe once or twice a week, while tweens and teens should bathe once a day.

The AAD recommends bathing your child, regardless of age, every time he or she finishes swimming.
