The Sudsy Saga: A Shower of Opinions 🚿🗣️
Our stepmom protagonist insists on her kids taking two showers a day, a routine she believes helps them wake up and stay clean. However, this has led to a few late arrivals at school, causing her wife to question the necessity of the morning shower. Despite the stepmom's defense of her routine, citing the benefits of cold showers and the warm climate they live in, she eventually accepts that she might be in the wrong. As the family navigates this bubbly battle, they're now working together to design a new morning routine. Let's see what the internet thinks of this situation... 💭💦
