Hopeless Dork

Personally, I don't feel family nudity is appropriate. You can teach your kid to not be ashamed of their body while at the same time teaching them to respect it and the people around them. Little babies is one thing, but over 6 even I think its time they bathe seperately and learn to give each other privacy.

I don't see what good can come from a practice that is so unusual it would need to be 'only done indoors' etc. In the real world and in society, nudity is not widely accepted, right or wrong its the world we live in. To teach them come be nude at home then outside/ at theirfriends house behave different. Confusing.

I'm sure some kids that grow up in totally free open nudity homes may have a good sense of self and their bodies and I am sure some may have feelings of guilt and wierdness when they find out most homes don't operate this way.

Its your life, its your family of course you can run it how you see fit, your wife seemed to have turned out fine in her environment but if your looking for opinion I think they are too old to be bathing together and seeing each other nude. That they needn't be shamed, but that now is the time to start teaching bounderies.
