grout the edges?

Hello

I recently read a post where the comment was made that any grout that joins up against a wall or tub is bound to get cracks from the expansion of the walls/tub/floor itself.

I'm putting ceramic tile on the floor in my bathroom and wonder if I should use something else around the edges of the floor?

Thanks!

The gap where tile meets the wall should be covered up by the baseboard. The gap where the tile meets a tub should be filled with caulk, not grout.
