I dont see a problem in it at all. My boy is 10 so I dont anymore and havent for awhile but my youngest is 3 so I still do with him. Youll know when your kids start telling you to cover up!

We have 2 boys (5&8) and one girl (3) and we try not to be naked around them. Every once in a while they may catch one of us in the act of dressing, but we never make a deal of it. We have a "no locked doors" policy, mostly in case of emergencies, and we are training the kids to knock before entering the room, which works most of the time. We never make a big deal about nudity, because we don't want the kids to be afraid or sickened if they see a naked body later on. We don't, however, feel it's right to walk around naked in your house in front of family members. I equate it with consideration. It's like walking around naked in front of your roommates. People have different comfort levels, and those should be honored.

LOL, so do my daughters. They don't see their dad naked either. I feel it's inappropriate.

I won't let my husband walk around naked because I think it's inappropriate, we have a little girl. But she takes showers with me almost every day, and sees me naked all the time. We are both female so I don't really see a problem with it. If she or I become uncomfortable then we will stop. She's 3 right now and I don't have a problem with it. She always tells me in the shower "mommy I see your boobies".
