Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher Respond to Drama Over How Much They Bathe Their Kids

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher are having a good laugh over all the hubbub the internet made about how much they bathe their kids.Ā 

ICYMI: The subject came up during their recent interview on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast. ā€œWhen I had [newborn] children, I also didnā€™t wash them every day,ā€ Kunis said, according to BuzzFeed. ā€œI wasnā€™t the parent that bathed my newbornsā€”ever." And Kutcher added, ā€œNow, hereā€™s the thing: If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, thereā€™s no point.ā€

Social media, of course, did its thing with these comments: A roaring debate emerged over how much parents should bathe their childrenā€”and also themselves. It was exacerbated when Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard came out with a similar stance on their kids; ā€œIā€™m a big fan of waiting for the stink,ā€ Bell said, per BuzzFeed. Then, Jake Gyllenhaal ignited the fire when he told Vanity Fair, ā€œMore and more I find bathing to be less necessary, at timesā€¦Thereā€™s a whole world of not bathing that is also really helpful for skin maintenance, and we naturally clean ourselves." Since when didā€¦not bathing become so in?Ā

Who knows, but Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher are taking all of this lightly (as they should). On August 11, they posted a video of themselvesā€”wait for itā€”bathing their kids, and they were giggling the whole way through.

ā€œYou're putting water on the children? Are you trying to melt them?ā€ Kutcher said faux-incredulously, as Kunis laughed. ā€œAre you trying to injure them with water? This is ridiculous! What's going on?ā€

ā€œWe're bathing our children,ā€ Kunis said, to which Kutcher responded, ā€œThat's, like, the fourth time this week! Four times this week! Their body oils are gonna be destroyed! What are you trying to do?ā€ Watch this for yourself in the post, above. Whether you're pro or anti-showering, you'll definitely be laughing.Ā
