Just wondering how you all feel about being nude/bathing in front of your children. How do you feel about being nude in front of a child of the opposite sex? At what age do you think this is no longer appropriate? And what about siblings? At what age do you start bathing them separately, etc?

That's a good question. I stopped leting my son bathe with my daughters when he turned 5. Only because he started asking questions about their differences. If they all want to play in the bathtub, they were their bathing suits. If my son walks in on me naked or in the shower, I ask him to step out and wait for me to get dressed. I don't make a big deal over it, I don't want him to feel like he did anything wrong. If my daughters walk in on me in the shower or something I just step to a place where they can't see me so well. I don't think it's bad for them to see me naked, I just feel that modesty is a good thing.

We don't see nudity as a big deal. If there comes a time when my dc are bothered my seeing us nude/ us seeing them nude, we will respect that. Otherwise, whatever is comfortable for them, is fine with us.

I have 2 girls, 5 and 10 1/2. Harrriet will be in the bath while Louise (older) has a shower at the same time. It doesn't worry her at the moment. She always gets dressed in her room now, which is fine by me and we knock if we need to talk to her. Sometimes she is a bit shy other times she will streak down the hall to her room and not be too worried. I just resect how she is feeling at the time really. Harriet doesn't care about it at all while she is at home but won't get changed if my friends boys are around to see, which is fair enough. Dh doesn't feel comfortable with them seeing him naked, which I think is fair enough. My Dad was the same. They see me naked all the time, will wander in to the bathroom to ask me a question if I'm in the shower. That doesn't worry me, they are quite comfortable with it, we are all girls. They don't seem to have been scarred by the experience so far!!!

Not sure when we will stop letting ds see me naked. He can see dh naked forever. Same if we have a girl in the future, she can see me naked, but not dh. Besides, I know I NEVER would have wanted to see my dad naked. Not something I would want to remember.

I don't let my kids see me naked nowadays. I bathe my younger daughter(5) andson(2) together, but that will change before long.My stepdaughters are 11(just) and 12 and there's no way I want my younger kids to see them naked as they are pubescent now,plus one of them doesn't like to be undressed in front of her siblings any more anyway.
My nudity is for my husband only

Well, since I am the only girl in the house, I will do my best to cover up. I still bathe the 2 younger boys together, but my 7 year old tends to want to bathe by himself. I am working on getting them to dress in their rooms.
