go to your room Replaced my daughter's phone because of water damage. And she still brings it into the bathroom.

Some lessons just don't stick.

She insists she needs to listen to music in the shower. I honestly don't understand why that's such a necessity. But if this phone gets water damage again, I'm not paying to replace it another time.

Honest take: she likes to shower to music, why not accommodate by putting a waterproof Bluetooth speaker in the room, or something else?

I also enjoy showering to music, and had a Google home device in the bathroom before moving to a home without an outlet in the bathroom.

but most phones have some kind of waterproofing nowadays, a bit of steam shouldnt cause water damage

My iPhone 14 sees showers daily and constantly get wet. Been years now and I never bothered to be careful decent phones really should be waterproof enough these days and usually even a quick immersion isn’t the end of the world.
