    The very idea that you need to exercise caution sends the message that being naked is wrong, shameful or harmful. On the other hand if you are naked and you don't react with shock or embarrassment, just say hi and keep doing whatever you'd do if you were dressed it tells all involved that there's no cause for concern. This clearly is not the norm in your house hence your apprehension but you can begin to create a new normal by reacting in a way that is unremarkable.

    I’m fine with it and don’t think it’s a big deal. When I’m using the bathroom, my kids barge in like it’s nothing and don’t say anything. My wife doesn’t think it’s a good idea. Growing up my parents walked around freely and it was nothing.

    I don't know that I'm whatever entails being cancer resistant but I do strive to be healthy, flexible, and agile with my practices which undoubtedly helps with immunity to all sorts of things. I also try to visualize what would be natural practice, what which evolved us to this point of relatively sedentary and acceptive of processed foods, and slathering chemicals on our bodies out of shame borne from the marketing of personal hygiene product manufacturers.
    I mean it's really nothing more than guessing but I do follow my sixth sense, if you will, about these things. And my body making its own vitamin D is one of those things. Only time will tell...

    I was only expressing caution because if you have already set standards for your children not to walk around naked, it goes for the same as the adults. That's why I said be cautious. If I find someone who wants to be naked all the time & we say that it's ok, I'm not going to discipline them for the behavior that is learned or taught.

    We have a 9 (boy) and 7 (girl) and within our family we are not shy about nudity. I shower with the door open, both kids get undressed in their room and walk to the bathroom to take showers. So within the family it's normal and no one does anything. However, we have instilled that this is only with us. If other people are home or they have friends over, they have to be respectful, close doors, etc.

    Have been talking to my wife about when our son (9) shouldn't see her naked, but we haven't figured out when/why/how that will happen

    You will eventually find the time to discuss with your son with your wife present. I know it's awkward to have the talk. My ex & I had to discuss with our nephews when their dad's didn't step in & discuss.

    We're trying to keep an open mind and not push too many taboos on them.

    As they start requesting or wanting privacy, we will respect that.

    Sounds like you've done a great job. If your kids have passed the point at 5 or 6 where modesty usually sets in perhaps there won't be any need to address it. It needn't be awkward if and when you talk about it with them. Imagine you're talking about what they want to have for breakfast, there's nothing awkward about that and it can be the same no matter the topic - it's all about your approach.

    My 2 (son 13, step daughter 11) are a little bit older, but because they have grown up as nudists it's not a problem for either of them, they are completely comfortable with nudism.

    I think many of the kids that shy away from nudism as they approach puberty, in general they often tend to be kids who were introduced to nudism too late. The early you start, the better.

    Yes I agree your two have passed the age of awkwardness. Its It's quite rare to have a family with step children comfortable in nudism together.

    My step daughter's father passed away when she was very young. My son's mother now lives on the other side of the world with her "new" family.

    Although both myself and my partner have a stepchild, we both think of and love both children as if they were our own.
