Traditional Jewish Bathing
Posted: Sun Jul 14, 2024 1:38 pm
For purposes of a story, I need some information.
I tried to look up what is normal in the Jewish community for parents bathing their children.
What I'd like to know is:
Up to what age can a Jewish mom see her son or male relative naked?
Up to what age would a Jewish mother or Aunt bathe a son/nephew?
Would a female relative ever be present at the Mikveh for a teenage male (obviously not the norm)
Do typical Jewish moms or aunts still get overly concerned with a boy doing masturbation or having a nocturnal emission?
I need to know what is "Normal" before I write about an unusual situation.
Any help, or links to info welcomed and thanked in advance.
