When should you stop being nude in front of your son? I mean showering or changing clothes

Question

Accepted Answer

When it becomes an issue. My sons are 5.5 months, 5 years, and 3.5 years. They still see me naked. My eldest understands anatomy. He's actually very big into understanding human anatomy. He knows how girls and boys are different. He knows mom is different than their dad and his brothers. I don't make a point to show him my body parts, but I don't hide myself either. I breastfeed my youngest so my boobs are constantly out. It's impossible to pee in privacy with three small boys. I shower when I can find time, and that means they may see me get dressed. They no longer ask questions about my body being different, they know I'm a girl and that's that. We do talk about private parts and privacy as well. I just feel no need to hide like there is something wrong with my body. To each her own. When it becomes an issue, then I'll be more careful. Right now it's not

Answer

I feel like when it makes you uncomfortable, stop. Some people are really open and others aren't. Just do you. Just try not to teach that a body is shameful. Cause it's just a body! 👍🏻

Answer

My mom never hid her body. I don't plan on hiding either. Its far too complicated to lock bathroom door or make him feel ashamed for walking in. I want him to understand privacy but that nakedness is ok in privacy and yo feel pride in his,body.

Answer

Honestly, my son is still a few weeks old, but I think I'll just go with the flow on this one. Whenever I feel is appropriate to stop, that's when I will

Answer

We have no nude issues in our house. If someone sees someone naked no one makes a big deal they just kindly excuse themselves and leave the bathroom

Answer

When his girlfriend is over... Or jus friends. I mean, general rule, keep the nude was in the family of possible. Don't wanna embarrass him in front of his buddies. 😉😉

He's your kid, your flesh... Until one of u becomes uncomfortable, it's normal. If my son asks my not to, I'd comply and also ask him y. I would tell him the human form us natural and no one should be ashamed of them self, but if he is more comfortable, I'll buy a robe. 👌🏼

Answer

My son is seven and we all see eachother nude. In our current living conditions there's really no privacy and none of us are uncompertable. Now if I could teach him a little modesty when it comes to outside the family lol. He'd run around in nothing but Star Wars undies all day every where if he could.

Answer

In a lot of foreign countries theyre nude around their kids for a long time. Until like the age of 10. And it's no big deal.

I guess this question is relative to where you live in the world.

Answer

I don't think my dad was ever nude/changed openly in front of me since I can remember. On the other hand my sister and my mum have always got changed/showered openly and I'll get changed in front of my dad if the situation is there (eg we are sharing a hotel room as a family or camping or something). I obviously can't speak from your perspective as I'm 17 but from the kids perspective I don't think it's a big deal even for different gender parent/kids. I don't really feel uncomfrtable if I walk in on my dad in the shower or anything.

Answer

My son is 3.5 yes old, I am still naked in front of him often. Once I get the feeling he's uncomfortable,  I will definitely stop.
