Most children (without any physical or mental impairment) can bathe alone safely by the age of 4 or 5 years. You should never leave a child completely unsupervised in the bath until they are able to wash themselves properly, and are not in danger of drowning from falling.

My 12 yr old grandson lives with me and he can get in the bathtub himself and also get out,. But I still bathe him, he does not clean every part of his body. His hair is very oily and his bottom is almost always dirty. He likes our time together when I am washing him an we talk about his day. He is getting better at cleaning himself but he is not there yet. He has not reached puberty so there is no issue with that. I dont think that will bother him when it happens.

After his bath, I dry him off then he gets in his underpants and pajamas. He gets 30 minutes of TV time then I tuck him for the night.

My question is: is he told for this kind of treatment?
