The only thing I'm picking up is a basic childhood fear. My 7 year old son has recently become afraid of the bathroom doors being closed all the way. Thinking back, I had the same fear. So wondering if your mom might remeber you haveing the same fear around her age. I would start with asking her why she is afraid and if it's a "monster" cleanse the bathroom with sage. Then, I don't know if this work or not, but kids LOVE new toys, maybe talk to her why it is neccassry for her to take a bath, i.e, and take her to Walmart for a bath tub toy shopping spree, per say, and see if this will work. Buy maybe 3 new toys that she would love to have in the tub with her, even if it a stuffed animal that would be her tub buddy. on the first night or two, put less water in the tub and then play with the toys in the water and be the "voice " of the toy, tell her how much fun it is takeing a bath and how much they want her to play in the tub with them. Kids have very vivd imaginations at this age, try working on that and hopefully it will help. they have all kinds of cool toys for the tub. I think crayola has like these crayons that she can draw with in the tub and I saw this little mirmaid set as well. Be creative and have patience. I promise this to shall pass
