Would you let your toddlers?

Question

Would you let your toddlers or kids see you naked?

Answer 1

I think it is a very personal decision. Some people get really hung up on nuditiy but our bodies naked or clothed are perfectly natural. I have two children, a son 3 and a daughter 7 months. Sometimes I still get a bath with my son and I have no problem with it, he also sees his baby sister naked all the time. If he asks questions I just answer them honestly, it is natural to be curious. My own opinion is that my children should see nudity as a part of life and not be ashamed or embarrassed of their own bodies, they should be taught everyone is different but beautiful all the same. I do however think you attitude rubs off on them and if you are uncomfortable naked in front of them they will sense it and wonder why. I think the decision is very much yours.

Answer 2

Toddlers are oblivious to embarrassment. Yes i let both my boys and girls see me naked when they were toddlers but at about age 3 they begin asking questions that made me uncomfortable. So I would say after that age it is time to teach them about privacy and which parts of the body are for public viewing.

Answer 3

Until about 3 years old yes. I would even if I had boys. My husband though......NO WAY! He is SO embarrassed when our daughter walks in the bathroom on him (she can now open doors lol) and freaks out and she is only 16 months and has no clue about it. I guess it's all on the comfort people have with it. But in my opinion, after 3 when they start to remember things long term and ask questions.....maybe children of the opposite sex should no longer see you naked (boys not see mommy naked and vice versa).

Answer 4

I see nothing wrong with it at all. I have 1 girl (12) and 2 boys (10 & 9). They all have seen me naked and their dad at some point. I dont make a point of walking around naked or anything. My 10 yr. old has no problem with nudity himself or others.He always comes in the bathroom whether its me or his dad is in the tub and hangs out on the floor chatting with us. My 9 yr. old will look away or leave the room if he accidently sees someone with no clothes on but will run butt naked from the shower to the laundry room to put his dirty clothes in there. My daughter is very modest and dresses only in her room and always knocks if her dad is home so theres no surprises. Its really up to your comfort level and when your kids reach a certian age they make the decision themselves whether they are comfortable with it too!!!

Answer 5

I have 2 sons, 3 1/2 and 5....and no I don't let them see me naked anymore since they started noticing that mommy wasn't like them. I also have a 13 y/o daughter and I don't have to worry about that anymore LOL

Answer 6

Yes. When they were little it was much easier to take a bath with them then try and lean over the tub. My daughter still sees me naked from time to time but I stopped letting my boys see me that way when they got old enough to know there is a difference between boys and girls.

Answer 7

My daughters are 6 and 4 and they see me naked. They walk in while I'm having a shower, they walk in when I'm getting dressed.
They just think its funny, they tease me that they can see my bum or my boobies.
I think if I had boys once I was uncomfortable then I wouldnt let them see me naked. I think once my daughter was two she stopped showering with her Dad. As she realised that he had a penis. And if they walk in on him getting dressed he gets embarrased.
I dont think nakedness is a big deal. My daughters know about different body parts, and know about privacy and when its appropriate to to be naked and when its not.

Answer 8

Theres good naked and bad naked...know what I mean

My kids have seen me naked.. They have even seen the youngest born... They understand that our bodies are different boys/girls kids/adults.. They also understand that some areas are "theirs"-- private.. They are modest but not fearful or confused about their bodies..

My thought is if you are uncomfortable discussing your bodies on a 3 yr old level, what the heck are you gonna do when they are 13?

Answer 9

Yes.Its a natural part of life to be curious about bodies,in a essence your showing a good attitude twards your body,than can actually help them devolop a good attitude about their bodies...Just know when its time to draw the line,espically if its little boys and your a mom...If your a mom and a daughter its not that big of deal.

Answer 10

I agree with the not letting them see after they know the difference between girls and boys
