I see bathtime as fun time. My husband sees it as a time to get clean and get out. I think there's a 5 minute tub limit for when Dad does bath time.

Usually fun time but clean time if DH is working and the baby is crying in another room!

we both see it as fun time. We usually scrub him down than let him play. His bath is usually 15-20 minutes. He loves bath time!

LO loves her baths so I'll let her play, but DH just wants her clean and outta there.

I see it as fun, definitely. I'll splash with him and sing to him and we'll play with his toys. I'll let him out when either A) he starts trying to climb out or B) he poops in the tub (sadly, not a rare end to a bath).
DH is more likely to just see it cleaning time. In and out in just a few minutes. Long enough to dump some water over his head, mostly. When DH give a bath (which is rare because of his schedule) I always ask him to use soap (which I usually only use 1-2x a week) so that he'll stay in there longer.

Fun time! LO loves playing in the bath, 45 minutes isn't rare (unless she poops). I view it as more time to tire her out before bed, and I bring my laptop in and play DJ while I also play online, so it's a break for me as well.

Mostly get in and get out since I have to bathe two kids. But sometimes we make it an afternoon activity and then I break out the bubble bath.
