A member asked:

How much water a 6 years, 18 kg girl should drink each day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Enough to pee: I consider monitoring/or striving for a set water intake somewhat unnecessary in anyone without a specific medical condition that requires it. People get fluid value in what they eat or drink daily. If they pee every 6 hrs they have taken in an adequate amount. Applesauce is 95% water, most fruits 80%, vegetables 60% etc.

Dr Rhoads and another doctor agreed
