Bathing children in alcohol? what a waste! If you were planning on bathing your children in booze, oh please just let me have it instead! The booze not the child. I don't care what you do with that thing.
I think if the author substituted word "in" with the word "with", then it would make a lot more sense.
An alcohol bath is what you call it when you take rubbing alcohol and apply it to your skin with a cloth or a big piece of cotton or whatever. It's like a sponge bath, but it uses ssweet sweet alcohol instead of water.
Alcohol baths? Here's a few more helpful hints for keeping cool:
- Do not place kids over open flame
- Do not cool kids in liquid nitrogen bath
- Avoid visiting parks currently on fire
- Take a vacation to antarctica
I grew up in Soviet Russia and my mom would subject me to vodka baths when I was running a fever (we didn't have fancy medications and rubbing me with vodka-soaked cloth did the trick.) Alcohol baths are a staple in some cultures and telling them not to do it is like telling Gus Portakalos that Windex is not a cure for every disease.
@largo01 -- ask my mom and you will get 100 uses for that substance. My first introduction to alcohol was probably at 4 or 5 when she added a tablespoon of it into my night-time tea to help with coughing and make me sleepy.
Surprisingly enough, that early experience kept me off booze for a looooong time as I remembered how nasty that stuff was :-) I have changed since.
Happy 4th of July!

No alcohol, caffeine or sugar? Three of my favorite drugs. I'm screwed.

NOW they tell us...
Can I bathe my child in bacon fat?
Why not just get a pup tent, open the door of your fridge and freezer, and stick that tent right at the opening?
Worked for the Simpsons... oh wait, they killed their motor.
@wsanders: ... That's how Bernie Ward got started.
"Wear Hats"
That's some fancy advice. Who came up with this, Jennifer Siebel?
i'm going to wear a lovely hat with some baby's breath on the outside.
Jacksevanroo - no one, and I mean NO ONE, looks better in a summery hat and an alcohol bath than the soon to be Mrs. Newsome.
PRAISE!
oops!

So basically those hardhats with beer in the cup holders are out of the question?
I prefer my children bathed in BBQ sauce, they marinate better that way and helps me to stay cool, calm and collected...bathing kids in alcohol, pft!

There are many ways to wear a hat. They should be more specific.

In Soviet Russia, vodka bathes you!!
HAHAHAHAHAHA
bebycik: That is such a waste of precious vodka! Surely your mother was really drinking it and just pretending to swab you down with the vodka?!
No officer, I haven't been drinking, I was just cooling my baby.
