Poll what age would it be weird to walk around naked in front of your dc

[Litttlepinkegg]

Me and Dh having a debate about this. He thinks I need to cover up when getting out the shower dd is 6 and ds 3. I think Dh is being weird who’s right?

If/when they get uncomfortable/embarrassed about it. We go to sauna as a family, naked of course, and oldest is 8 and is still comfortable but I expect by the start of puberty, if not earlier, she'll be uncomfortable (usually once puberty is past they get comfortable again with same sex parent - I'm quite comfortable going to sauna with my mum now but not between the ages of 11 to about 20)

We were fairly relaxed until DD started puberty, then she wandered into the living room with nothing on. She was about 12, and my Westermark effect kicked in violently. She's okay with DW still.

I agree it’s never weird unless you’re weird about it. I’m early 30s and my folks are turning 60, I still don’t batt an eyelid if we’re having a conversation while they change. I hope my kids are the same. As it is they’re a pair of little nudists and I love it.

Not that I tend to walk around naked generally but I've only just started to think I should probably cover up a bit as my son is 9 and I imagine he probably finds it a bit embarrassing now!

When I first met DH I was a bit that he and both his DBs (11-24 in age) would chat to DMIL in her bath.

But my DDad would have been scandalised to see me naked post puberty.

DM no problem at all.

Who knows with DSs (6 and 2 and currently chat to me when I’m using the loo let alone just getting changed!). When they get uncomfortable I guess.

I stopped being naked Infront of my ds4 recently, not because it's inappropriate but because he likes to point out things such as my bum is the size of 12 bums...

My ds is a fairly young 10 and I’ve just started covering up.

I still have baths with my 9 year old daughter and 7 year old son...they just strip off and get in with me if they see me in there. It is a squeeze.

Absolutely no intention of covering up at all any time soon, if ever. i was brought up feeling ashamed of my body and there is no way I am passing that on to my children.

I think it is essential that they see normal bodies before they get exposed to porn and the unrealistic expectations that creates. My husband is more discreet and usually has at least his underwear on around the children.

Probably when they started feeling conscious about their own bodies - around 8 and 6, but they are 11 and 8 now and although they often walk about naked, after a bath or in the paddling pool or whatever, I don't anymore!
