    What age.....

    Do you think kids should stop wondering around the house naked? Dds are 3 & 5.

    I personally don't mind. We often wonder around the house naked when I'm looking for clothes etc lol

    I want them to feel comfortable in their bodies and skin. I obviously encourage appropriate behaviour outside the house but I don't have any issue personally. Just interested in others opinions.

    Similarly, when do you think as a parent it's not ok to do nudie runs anymore?

    Again.. Just looking for thoughts

    When the kids start complaining or seem uncomfortable IMO. Until then - nude it up.

    Agree totally. We don't make a habit of it but ill walk from the bathroom to my bedroom, or if I'm looking for clothes. We have never made a big deal about it.

    DD9 will still do it, but DS12 and DD11 stopped a while ago. DS6 on the other hand will be quite happy to let it all hang out I think LOL. He's a bit of an exhibitionist. They will decide when they stop feeling OK with it.

    My DH is very uncomfortable with it and will always tell my boys to put clothes on. My 7 year old is happy to wander around nude all day and regularly has "nudey days" on weekends much to his fathers horror. My 5 year old prefers to wear clothes but doesn't care if his brother is naked.
