7 yr. old son ok to see mom naked

Is it ok for my 7 yr. old son to see me naked while changing or getting out of the shower? These are the only times it happens. Neither my son or I make a big deal of it. We don't even notice it as being anything.

My husband thinks it is wrong and disrespectful to see your mom naked. He also thinks it will make my son go to school and ask to see other girls "boobs and peepee's".

I find this all to be silly. I saw my parents nude for awhile but then just my mom when I got older, my younger brothers also always saw my mom nude.

Thank you.

There is no right or wrong approach to this issue. Rather, it is a matter of parents' judgment whether family members should see one another naked and in particular if children should see their parents naked. I would suggest that you and your husband figure this out so you are adopting a uniform approach and not differ about it. That may ultimately be more important than anything.

I think ur husband is over reacting like u i saw both my parents nude and I never went to school and asked questions about what ur husband is worried about u think u should sit down with ur son and explain that u don't ask questions about to other childrens peepees and girls boobs I think ur son will be fine
