A simple way is to focus on the moment of relaxation for mom. For example, while mom is in the shower, the family prepares a warm cup of tea and a cozy chair for her to relax in when she's done. When she comes out, she's greeted with this simple yet loving gesture.
No, it's not appropriate. In most cultures and for reasons of privacy and healthy boundaries, parents and children should have separate bathing times as children grow older.
From a psychological point of view, the positive side of a young child taking a shower with mom might be that it can strengthen the mother - child emotional connection. It can be a moment of trust - building. But the negative impacts are numerous as the child matures. There could be a blurring of personal boundaries which can cause problems in later life, like difficulty in forming healthy relationships. It can also create an inappropriate perception of privacy within the family, which may not be in line with the values of the wider society. Also, it may subconsciously affect the child's sexual development in a not - so - positive way if it continues for too long.
Another plot could be that mom is taking a shower and there's a power outage. She has to fumble around in the dark to find a towel and get dressed. Meanwhile, the family is trying to figure out what happened to the power and when they finally get it back on, mom comes out with a funny story about her experience in the dark shower.
I'm not sure specifically which 'shower with mom story' you are referring to. It could be a personal family anecdote about a shared shower experience perhaps for some practical reason like a small child being scared to shower alone and the mom being there for support.
No, it's not a very common type of story in general. Most family stories tend to be about vacations, holidays or special events. However, in some families where there are unique family dynamics or a need to share certain experiences for educational or emotional reasons, such a story might exist.
Since I don't know the exact 'mom shower curtain story', here's a possible one. Maybe the mom had an old, tattered shower curtain that she finally decided to replace. She took her kids to the store and they had a great time looking at all the different patterns and colors of shower curtains. In the end, they picked a bright and colorful one that made the bathroom look much more cheerful.
I'll share my mom's shower story. When my mom was on vacation at a beach house, the shower in the bathroom had a really strange water pressure. Sometimes it was too strong and would almost knock her over, and other times it was so weak that it took forever to rinse off the soap. But she still made the best of it and had a great time on that vacation despite the shower quirks.
A mom outdoor shower story could involve her using natural products during the shower. For instance, she might use a homemade soap made from local herbs. There could be a story about how she got the idea to do that. Also, the wildlife around could play a part. She might see a little bird or a butterfly while she's in the outdoor shower and it makes her day. Maybe she even has a little conversation with a neighbor who passes by and is curious about her outdoor shower setup.
Once, my mom had an interesting outdoor shower experience while we were camping. There was a small waterfall near our campsite. She decided to take a 'shower' under it. She was so excited, like a child. She wore her swimsuit and just let the water splash over her. It was a really refreshing moment for her.
