This country is doomed.
Parent did the right thing. I wish more parents would call out bad behavior.
This is just WRONG of the teacher and administration to allow this kind of homework assignment.
Why not just say, :Homework...take a photo of your child reading a book and if possible, take the photo in one of his/her favorite places to read. (And include: Photos must be appropriate for a school setting.)
Taking a bath is a private thing where children are unclothed!
Yes, I know that parents would have the kids cover their private parts with their books...but it is just wrong that they would want parents in the bathroom while the child was taking a bath! It is just wrong, wrong, wrong.
