Not-So-Perfect Parent: Water Waster

Okay, I admit it. I am a water waster. I recycle and turn out all the lights before leaving the house. But when it comes to water – I waste it like a rock star! You see, I believe mothers are entitled to baths. Not your “just enough to get you wet” philosophy that my grandfather had. No, I’m talking hot, soaking, bubbles to your nose kind of bath. In my opinion, we are entitled. It is our opportunity to regroup and reclaim our sanity.

I say leave water conservation to the men, the adolescents, the children (who are more concerned about making tub bubbles than relaxing). Mothers should be gifted the occasional soak with no limits on bath water and no concerns about water conservation. Let us have this one guilt-free, “Calgon Take Me Away” moment where we can indulge and pamper ourselves free from obligation And men, don’t even think about joining us. The bath is off limits to you – because we know you have other things in mind that are not conducive to relaxation! Leave us alone and allow us to wash away our worries. Believe me, it will benefit you in the long run!
