To not want my kids grandparents to sleep naked with him.

I would have no problem with this with either DS. I always sleep naked, ds2 always ends up in my bed, ds1 often walks into the bathroom when i am in the bath and strikes up a conversation and he is 11,12 in july. Its not as if he hasn't seen me naked before, i mean he watched DS2 being born for a start, right from start to finish he was standing there lol.

Going by some of the comments on this thread, it's a pity more people don't see wrinkly relies at a formative age. The ageism is appalling. How dare gp go grey or have wrinkles? Maybe we should have them put down so they don't upset the children? (Don't mean you, OP).

Sexual assault is inappropriate (to put it mildly) being naked is not.

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest. My parents sleep naked, always have. I wouldn't give it a second thought if DD (9yrs) was getting in bed with them when she stays over. She doesn't, but that's only cos my dad snores and she hates it! lol
I sleep naked and have had DD in with me plenty of times, as you do. She also annoys talks to me when I'm in the bath etc. At this point I don't even notice if I'm naked in front of her, my mum is the same with me, she wouldn't bat an eyelid if I walked in on her in bath or getting dressed.
As for not kissing your kids on the lips, that makes me sad, do people really think that way??

I am suprised at the number of people who find nakedness upsetting and wouldn't sleep naked with their own children. Although each to their own.

However, I don't think there is anyway to tell GP to put some clothes on without offending them. No matter how you word it the subtext is 'I think you're a perve'. If the child themselves was uncomfortable that would be different but even then I would wonder why they were upset with just nakedness.

My dad sleeps naked, and when my oldest DD was old enough to walk in to their room, I asked my mum to ask him to wear shorts /pants in bed when we stay or they stay with us.

It's a YANBU from me as well. I am a bit of a prude admittedly and don't sleep naked myself.

@ the inlaws being stereotypically nudie swedes!

BTW I don't think you should tell them that your DC have said they are uncomfortabe with it if they haven't, IYSWIM, as that will upset them and why upset them if it's not true

I wouldn't like it. I don't know why though.
...one thing I do know is that it's not because I think anything inappropriate will happen If I thought that I wouldn't let my child sleep over, naked or not!

I sleep naked but when I have my neice and nephew over to stay, I wear my pj's. It wouldn't seem right not to do so. Again, I don't know why though.

Great help aren't I?!

Oh god I couldn't stand the thought of sharing a toothbrush with anyone! DS tries to bruch my teeth with his brush after he has done his. It makes me (some sort of uhh emotion).

I wouldn't be happy with it but I'm not really sure why.

The only naked people I would be prepared to sleep with are dh and ds, anyone else would be just too icky. I wouldn't like the idea that you might accidently get someone elses bodily fluids on you.

I think its similar to sharing a toothbrush. If it was really necessary I would share a toothbrush with dh or ds only. I wouldn't want ds to share a toothbrush with his grandparents either.

Gosh. I am quite prudish really (and generally over protective of dds) and it wouldnt bother me at all. I still sleep naked with my 8 year old, as does dh. We all wonder around naked. I wouldnt worry about my dds seeing grandparents naked - they need to understand that the body ages and there is nothing wrong with that. Mind you, I wont get changed in communal swimming changing rooms - am only prepared to be naked in front of family!!!

No biggie.

Just tell your ds to keep his jammys on when he stays over then no old skin will be touching his!

YANBU - if it bothers you then you have every right as a parent to either casually avoid them staying over, or mentioning it to the GPs.

This thread shouldn't be a forum for slagging off people who have different comfort levels. You are the parent and you should always be comfortable with what your children are exposed to.

I bath or take showers with my daughter (only 2 and a half) she loves it.

Yes as I said earlier I personally feel uncomfortable with kissing my kids on the lips (I accept I'm a weirdo) but I wouldn't feel at ease if the GP's (particularly my hubby's) were naked in a bed with my child either.

I think I possibly worry too much though and over think things... I'm clearly not as laid back as some people. I realise that

YANBU, this would bother me too. I admit I am a bit of a prude being brought up by my nan and very strict step grandad.

If you are not comfortable that is entirely up to you. Some people are ok with stuff like this and some aren't. Can you not get your DH to say that your DCs have brought it up and they are not comfortable with it, hence the pyjama comment?

This wouldn't bother me at all. IMO, feeling icky about nakedness is from the same school of thought that abhors breastfeeding because breasts are just for pleasure. There is nothing wrong with nakedness.

we sleep naked in this house (unless its too cold!) my children often come into our bed for a hug I dont see the problem and if the children dont like it well they have perfectly good beds of their own!
Probably wouldnt care about grandparents sleepign naked but since they never go there I couldnt say for sure!

I have to say I'm finding it hard to imagine how I would feel as I imagine that both sets of GP here are firmly in the "keep your underwear on under your full length victorian nightwear" types.

Well I know mine are anyway, I suspect DHs are even more floor-length.

But we sleep naked, although my first reaction might be a bit , I would have to ask mysef if there was any sensible reason for feeling like that, realise there wasn't and say fine.

I wouldn't have a problem with it- to have a problem suggests they just might be doing something wrong.

I can't believe some of you think it is wrong for your own children to be in bed with you naked.

Especially that one poster doesn't even kiss her children on the lips. That's weird.
