    My son is nearly 3. He still baths with us and loves it. He likes to sit on my lap but thinks my pubes are scratchy so he puts a facecloth under his bum before he sits down.

    He wants to bath with us, I'm dying to have a bath by myself.

    Oskar is 4 and still on occasion jumps in with me... I'm like a few others though... it's MY shower dammit... have ya own lol.... but meh, he sees me walk between the bedroom and bathroom naked... if he said something, I'd stop, but at the moment, they're little, they don't see it as anything other than exactly what it is. I used to work with a guy where the whole family still just walked between bed/bathrooms in the nuddy... the kids were hmmmm 10 or so? None of them cared cos for them, that was just what they'd always done. Not sure if I'll be able to do it myself then though lol. For me, I would probably stop before that myself!

    Glam... hahahah that is funny!!!

    Geez, she wouldn't much like that my DS knows where a Mooncup goes and how it gets there! 5yo and still sharing nekkedness.
    My BiL&SiL's family is so relaxed about nudity and its very refreshing. They all still bathe together at times, and the eldest two are nearly 14 and nearly 16, the youngest two are 3 and 5. That's how I want us to be.
    We're gonna share showers and baths until the kids want their own space. Yes, I'd love my own shower and bath time, and I'll get plenty of that time soon enough - it'll seem like no time at all before they want their own time and space
    Mind you, atm, we're showering outside while we build on our farm (the first dwelling - the second one isn't even in planning stages, yet!), so if we were in any way prudish about it, we definitely aren't, now!
