Does Sitting On Floor Affect Reproductive Organs?
Hi, my daughter is 4, and in school they always sit on the floor for storytime, 20-30 minutes, my mom says it's really bad for reproductive organs, is that true? Also in my opinion you can get all sourts of illnesses by touching the dirty floor (kids don't always wash their hands). I am from Russia and I remember we used to change shoes before entering our nursery or kindergarten. Any thoughts?
Thank you.
Thank you.
