I walk around naked when I'm changing and stuff. My daughter laughs and says, "Belly!"

I don't just walk around naked all day, but my daughters have seen me change and come out of the shower and stuff - no problem. My husband is more modest, which actually doesn't bother me now that my oldest is 8.

I don't mind if it's female/female or male/male, but even growing up my dad made sure he at least had on underwear if he was going to be around us.

I have all boys so I don't let them see me unless I have on a bra and pants.

They have seen me but they are only 3 and 2.. I agree with graylen,I don't think my daughters need to see their dad without clothes on.

Growing up - I was never weird about being naked in my parents house. I would walk around in the buff from the shower and to my bedroom, and if someone caught a glimpse oh well. My father was modest and I never saw him, but my mom was the same way as me.

Now that I have a husband who was not raised that way - I have become more modest around my own daughter. But she is only 1 so if she does see me running to the shower - oh well!

I think at a certain age the rules change.

I definitely agree with what everyone else is saying. Age and sex definitely make a difference.

Completely agree - my father used to walk around naked when we were little, but as soon as we got old enough to realize that "daddy was naked" he stopped. My mum still does it to this day!
However, as my husband is very modest there is very little nudity in our household now. Its is funny how you change and adapt to respect other peoples values.

When the kids are small, like 5 and younger it's not a big deal. But as they get older and begin to know the differences between boys and girls it's a bad idea.

My family has no issues with nudity, both my 8 and 5 year old (boy and girl) see me and my husband naked. I think it's important for kids to see what 'real' bodies look like and to feel good about their own bodies. At this point they have shown no embarrassment by our nudity but I would absolutely respect them if they did and cover up accordingly...I think it's all about reading their cues and being respectful to where they are developmentally.

I agree with VelmaBean. I'd like my children to understand that nudity is nothing to be ashamed of nor is it necessarily sexual. So, we don't go out of our way to make sure they never ever see us naked but nor do we make a habit of stripping for anything other than changing or showering.

We're pretty open. We don't walk around naked everywhere but the kids think it's hilarious to see Daddy run downstairs to get clean clothes from the dryer. I don't cover up until I'm ready to put clothes on (out of the shower). As far as the kids themselves go, they're nekkid ALL the time (they're 2 and 1). Spaghetti for dinner? Take off your clothes. Want to paint? Take off your clothes.

I wouldn't mind walking around the house naked if it was just my husband, the baby and I, but we also live with my in-laws so it's not cool. I don't need my FIL seeing my junk. Eww.

I'm only just now starting to consider using a robe when I come out of the shower. My daughter just turned 2.

We never ran around naked in the house; usually just to the shower or whatever. I have always tried to act like nudity was comfortable around my kids - I have a 14 yr old son and 12 yr old daughter. I want my kids to be comfortable with their bodies (unlike me when I was growing up). I agree with other posters that it's important to read the "cues" from your kids. My son is so NOT ok with nudity at all right now - I know it's the puberty thing - and that's ok. I haven't changed anything, just going to take a shower - if he doesn't want to see, he just looks away. It doesn't faze my daughter at all to see me naked - but she's not so comfortable anymore since she's started puberty. We've talked and I've told her it's ok if she's not comfortable - and if I make her uncomfortable, to let me know. So far, we're ok.

I'm now 34 and my families totally cool with being nude, I have a 14 year old son and a 15 year old daughter, we all including my husband love to just walk around the house nude. My daughter once caught me using my vibrator and just asked what it was and she even had a go with it!! Now my son has started puberty he normally gets erections when he's around us and most of the time will start to masturbate, whereas me and my daughter woild normally go in mine or her room and play with our vibrators. I think nudity in the home is perfectly ok!

You all are too funny. I became a nudist shortly after my first son was born. Six weeks after my son was born my wife found out she had a death sentence. Turned out she had cancer and the doctors gave her less than 6 months to live. Given that, she decided she wanted to try everything... including nudism. I was not thrilled, but went along. What a wonderful experience!!! It was sure strange the first time. Taking off your clothes in a parking lot and walking into a resort naked.
What a life changing experience that was. Over the 3 years she managed to live (As well as the 14 major surgeries) we experienced nothing but total acceptance. No one ever made her feel bad about her scars. We were all nude and natural. My son grew up never feeling ashamed about his body. We became nudists at home as well. All our friends, and expecially their kids, joined in as well. We soon became the fun house (Where the kids would shed their clothes as soon as they arrived). Never did it become a sexual thing. Oh yea. Sometimes the kids would get aroused and masterbate, but that was ok. We let them all know that a normal part of being a human being. It was ok, but don't do that where it would cause others discomfort. Of course we let our entire family know we were nudists. Too funny. My older sister had a trip and wanted to know whether we could watch her 2 daughters for a week or so. We asked her whether we should "modify" our nudist routine. She said "Ask the kids". We did and needless to say, they decided to be naked in minutes. They spend the entire week naked with our son and to this day, they never forget the great time they had at Uncle Richard's house.
That was over 20 years ago. When my wonderful wife finally died, she asked me to continue to raise our son as a nudist (No shame). Not only that, but the day before she died she was recommending future wives for me. Wow, what a woman. Never a selfish thought!!!
Well, when I met my current wife (and 3yr old daughter), I let her know about my nudist lifestyle. She decided to give it a try. Of course, her daughter had no problems throwing off the clothes. They both loved it and soon we got married (In a nude wedding with our friends, also nude).
Too funny. Years later, when our daughter was 6, my daughter had an "Episode" at an after school program. Seems a boy decided to flash her. He was a known bully and he, with a few friends, exposed his penis to my daughter and asked her "What do you think of this?". Of course, he expected her to panic or something like that. Instead, she bent down and gave the penis a good look and exclaimed "It's ok, but I've seen better!". He then ran away crying. Not the reaction he expected! The after school instructors found out about this and had to tell me what happened when I picked her up. They were all laughing and told me they did not think he would ever pick on her again. I told them about us being nudists and they all laughed about the fact that this bully picked on the wrong kid.
We now have 4 kids (2 boys and 2 girls). Nudism is a way of life for all of us. My kids have never felt ashamed of their bodies. Sexuality is a normal part of being a human being. I love the fact that my girls do not feel ashamed about discussing things such as having a period, etc. And yes, my boys have had an errection in front of us, but so what??!! That is part of being human.
And no, there has never been sexual activity between any of our family members. Are you kidding??!! Our kids love AND hate each other just as much as other siblings do. They do not have sex with one another. In fact, they seem to look at sex in a much more mature way then their piers. Since they have seen literally thousands of people nude while growing up, they are not as curious about sex as their peers. Simply seeing another penis or vagina does not get them horny. They look for love, not just lust.
What a great way to grow up. I thank my first wife (Taffy) for showing us the way. All my friends and their kids have enjoyed the experiences. For all of you considering whether to try it, I say "Go for it". Afterall, we all are human. Be yourself.

I think nudity in the family is ok as long as nobody is uncomfortable with it. Me and my mom walk from the shower to our room in the nude. My sister doesn't, but she doesn't think it's a problem that we do it. She even comes inside my room to talk to me if i'm naked, so she doesn't care. I have also heard about some girls who are comfortable walking around naked infront of their brother and father. If you are comforable with it, it's a beautiful thing. It feels really good to just walk around nude knowing nobody acts weird about it. I'm from Holland btw.
