Bath time with half siblings

I don’t know why I feel weird about this but I just do. My 15 month old has only ever had a bath with myself or my partner however today my partner bathed her with her 8 year old Half sibling. I was suprised as the 8 year old is very conscious getting dressed and undressed in front of us now but with my baby she was right in. I don’t know why I feel weird with this. Is it because it’s always been a mum dad thing ? Or is she a bit old she be doing that

I wouldn’t like this If half sibling (or full sibling) was only 3 years ish older than them then bathing them together seems ok But it seems a little strange to me at 8 to bathe with a sibling :/ Not like inappropriate strange but idk just not exactly ok with it I’d ask partner not to do that again tbh 8 year old should be bathing herself anyway

Thanks I feel this way. Plus they have different hygienes too as her mum and I are not the same in that way. There is difference of opinion with me and the partner on the 8 year olds independence in that she helps dress her ( she being lazy) and is monitoring her as she won’t do as she told and messed about. He now dressing both in the same room when he can do one in her room and the 8 year old dress herself 🤷🏻‍♀️. It does feel like hard work constantly raising points with little girls and independence but it’s his child so

I think if she was 4/5 I wouldn’t bat an eyelid as shes still little too But 8 - no Tbf we have this my SD is 7 her mum still baths/showers her, SD can’t brush her own hair, doesn’t know how to get herself dressed properly coz mum still does it Luckily my partners on my page and doesn’t fall for it I wouldn’t bat and eyelid at them getting dressed in the same room tbh
