I have a small electric space heater I use in the bathroom in the winter. I bought it because I got upset about being cold when I bathe. Getting undressed and shivering before I get in the water, and freezing after I get out, until I dry and dress.
Everyone else in the house (NT's) thinks I am strange for wanting a "hot" room to bathe in. I don't care as long as I get to stay in my comfort zone.

I gave my daughter a bath every evening on a week night. Things like staph infections, scabies and headlice would go around the school, so when she got home, first we would wash the hands.
She bathes her kids only about twice a week, and they get all kinds of skin problems. I notice when they get a daily bath, these things clear up. Maybe it's just something to do with our family having odd skin. My daughter and I disagree about things like this, but it gets warm and humid in this climate, so I think a bath every day is not excessive.
