Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have sparked an online debate about how much bathing is too much, especially when it comes to young kids. The celeb couple revealed on a recent podcast that when their children were very young, they only gave them baths when you could “see the dirt on them.” Kunis and Kutcher also said they don’t use soap on themselves everyday, either.
What do you think??? Well, a doctor says they might be on to something.
"Typically, as adults, we take daily showers because of smell and body odor, but small kids don't have that smell and body odor," he said. Usually, body odor hits when kids start entering puberty, about age 10, Ganjian said.

Ron Popeil, the Renaissance man who created the Pocket Fisherman and Hair in a Can, has died ... TMZ has learned.
Family sources tell TMZ, Ron experienced a severe medical emergency Tuesday and died early Wednesday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A. He was surrounded by his family.
Popeil created the famous Showtime Rotisserie & BBQ and coined one of the most iconic catchphrases ever -- "Set it and Forget it!!!" The product grossed more than $1 BILLION in domestic sales, shattering QVC and other sales records.
Ron created the famed Chop-O-Matic in 1959 and it sold like crazy -- 2 million units. He followed that up with the Veg-O-Matic and another great catchphrase ... "But wait, there's more!!!" He was 86.

"Arthur" -- the longest-running children's animated series in U.S. TV history -- is coming to an end.
Carol Greenwald, executive producer of the PBS kids show, confirmed in an email to IGN that "the winter of 2022, the 25th and final season of Arthur will debut." For what it's worth ... she also said the production company and PBS KIDS will "work together on additional Arthur content, sharing the lessons of Arthur and his friends in new ways."
The kids show debuted on PBS back in 1996 and produced over 240 episodes. The show's based on Marc Brown's "Arthur Adventure" book series.
The series -- which in its long run hauled in 4 Emmys and a Peabody Award -- tackled tons of social issues between family and friends in the fictional town of Elwood City.
