Mum Says She Often Sends Her 5 Kids To School Without Showering: "Stinking Won't Kill Them"

• Instead of shouting herself hoarse every morning, a mother found the best solution to remain sane
• She decided to send her five children to school every morning without showering because the hustle would delay them
• The woman explains that her kids stinking a little will not kill them

A busy mother of five has revealed she mustered the art of taking shortcuts to ensure her kids are ready for school on time.

According to her, going through an elaborate routine for all the children would take so much time every morning, so she figured a more accessible way out.

Kids shouldn't shower daily

The Mirror reports that the woman allows her kids to skip showers and makes them eat their breakfast from one plate with their hands.

Constance Hall defended her actions, maintaining that stinking a little would not kill the young ones.

"They can often skip that part of the routine if it's getting everyone down. I'm like, 'Fine, stinky, go to school and gross everyone out'," she said.

Constance justified her decision by alluding to the American Academy of Dermatology, which said that children between six and 11 only need to shower once or twice a week.

The exception is for children who are extremely dirty, sweaty or have a skin condition that requires high levels of hygiene.

"I know it makes them look more loveable when they are all clean and smell fresh, but really, skipping a night bath or morning shower a couple of times a week won't kill them," she added.

Blocks out children

Regarding her decision to let them feast from the same plate, she explained that washing dishes is the worst part of dinner.

In other cultures, everyone eats with their hands off the same plate, so she borrowed the same and let them eat with their hands to save on washing up.

Parents with many children understand the struggle of giving attention to each of them, so Constance permanently "blocks them out" by wearing headphones around the house.

"I can't respond to the 400 questions a day by six different kids: the fights over whose turn on the iPad it is, or who ruined what. I just can't. So I block it out," she noted.

Divinar's quadruplets rename cousin Luna

Back home, Divinar Ogari's quadruplets Lara, Lyanna, Libby, and Lisa recently celebrated their 7th birthday.

Since they were younger, they have been living with their cousin Jasmine, whom they have renamed Luna to blend in.

The mother of five disclosed that the babies renamed their cousin without her knowledge, and when she asked, they told her she needed a name that starts with L, like them.
