A member asked:
My four year old son still wants me to shower with him, is this inappropriate?

Probably: At four years of age, your child should be bathing without a parent in the shower or the tub. Certainly, he will still need supervision in the tub. However, showering/bathing with a parent at that age should be discouraged.
