Being naked

I wish I could be that carefree but hubby's best friend is our roommate. He broke up with his girlfriend three years ago and asked if he could stay with us until he found somewhere else............... he's still here, lol! He pays rent which helps out alot and he is basically in the basement all the time except for dinner. He's like Bekka's adopted uncle and he's nice so I don't mind it plus he takes out the trash for me :)

We don't make a huge issue about it. As the kids get older they will develop some modesty. I have tended to use our living room as a big dressing room. When you have three kids to get ready to go away now 11, 8 and 6 (at one time they were like 6m,3 and 5) it was just easier to lay clotes out in one room and dress everyone. I always have someone in the bathroom when I am showering. My husband is a bit more modest but he also gets up at 430 am to do chores and shower. He hates it when the kids need to use the restroom (we only have one) and he is in there. I just feel like if the kids know what the opposite sexes body looks like they won't care as much when they get older because thier curosity will be known. I have seen that to be a positive in big families with both boys and girls. Single sex families tend to have more curosity issues. I can remember growing up and as girls in the family would walk around in our bra and panities, no big deal it was just like a two piece bathing suit!
And now for me I always have some issue that I have to deal with climbing out of the shower. I had talked to the neighbor, she has 4 girls and they were always walking around like that too. He husband just got use to it and then they developed some modesety in late high school.

Living on a farm the kids also experience some issue with breeding animals. It has been good for them to see how life begins and ends. Minimal questions for now, with brief answers to fulfil thier minds.

I agree. Growing up, my mom always walked in her bra while getting dressed. I tend to do the same thing while I'm ironing my clothes for work. It's not like I go out of my way to parade aroung the house tho either. I don't want my son to grow up thinking the body is a "dirty" thing that needs to be hidden. After a shower, I never leave the bathroom naked tho. I think that would be too much of an education and a little weird!!

I stay clothed but it doesn't matter my daughter does not let me be in the bathroom alone. And sometimes I forget pieces of clothing and have to run to the bedroom.

I do the same as most everybody here. I'll walk from room-to-room in my bra to get changed if I forget to grab a shirt before my shower. I will sometime shower with our 4-year-old girl and I don't think that's any big deal, but I will be stopping very soon because I think she's getting a little old for that. My hubby is certainly more modest around the house. He's not even totally comfortable with me seeing him without a shirt on, let alone walking around the house that way. He will take our 17-month-old boy into the shower with him on occasion. Growing up, my mom would usually walk around the house in her bra and undies while getting ready and would go to the bathroom with the door open(#1), and I'm afraid I picked up that habit, too, but I'm getting better about keeping the door closed.
