Like that? I just made it up. Well, it does sound familiar…
We’ve all been there whether we’re dyed-in-the-wool nudists or part-timers. What to do about the kids? Some kids are lucky enough to be raised in the lifestyle and can make their own choices about it whenever they want. Otherwise we have to decide whether to introduce them to it, just tell them about it, or hide it from them.
My kids learned that Mom and Dad were naturists in their late teens, after a long time of faking it. Angie’s kids, grown, learned of it as soon as she did. Two of mine have been to a nudist venue, survived without too much trauma but didn’t care to indulge. The one who didn’t happen to go is ok with the idea and would love to take his kids to our nude beach or camp, but cannot because it could mess with child custody issues. You know, unfit parent!
None of them care that we’re nudists.
Anyway, there are many sources of information on the subject, both pro and con. As you can imagine, the anti-nudity crowd tends to bring sex, sin, and morality into the discussion, as if simple nudity is immoral or against God’s liking. The textile community’s obsession with sex colors everything they see, especially nudity, and they cannot fathom how a family could be nude together without something sexual happening!
Here’s a few viewpoints in favor of family nudity and its positive aspects for children. See what you think!
