So I’m new to the nudist lifestyle. I have 3 children ages 12, 11, and 8. I’m really looking for advice on how to introduce this to them and how to help them become comfortable with it. And even on explaining them to that it’s completely ok for them to do it as well. How hard is it to get older children to come around to the idea of being nude at home? Any and all advice is so completely welcome!!!
Hello and welcome to HIP! I’m sure you will get some advice here from naturists that are in a family setting. In the meantime please feel welcome to introduce yourself here - Introduce Yourself!
No actual experience in this personally. Our adult sons know of our nudists lifestyle and accept it but not around them or our granddaughter. We know our one son goes to the same resort as us. But prefers privacy from the parents. We honor that for all comfort. Knowing others that have raised their child as nudists, many have said when the child hit puberty they changed and list comfort with it. Peers also played a part. You are intro7your children in around that puberty age. You may not find the acceptance you are hoping for
we just took our children with us to nude events We belong to a non landed club that rents out an indoor swimming pool during the winter months. They loved it
As others have said, it gets more difficult the closer they get to puberty. It's important though that nudism is what they want, and not just what you would like them to experience. My two (son just turned 14 & stepdaughter almost 12) have been nudists for several years now. They are used to it, enjoy it, and at times are even more committed nudists than myself or my partner! I know of families at our nudist club where some kids do turn their backs on nudism for a couple of years, but happily some do return to it as they reach their mid to late teens. Good luck!
The nudist lifestyle is beautiful but not everyone agrees. Most kids enjoy being naked and think nothing of it. You might want to start with some family nude time say watching a movie on TV all while nude. Also kids are smart and they may not care weather others are nude or them may like clothes. If you are nude around them while doing house work they may join you or not. Good luck.
