"Skivvies" really is a flashback! LOLstealth2 said:There is nothing inherently WRONG with sleeping in the nude. This is YOUR hang-up, hon. I sometimes do, I sometimes don't - depending a great deal on the weather. Same with the kids. The a/c doesn't always cool the upstairs well enough, so sometimes they'll strip right down for bed. Big deal. Do they wander around starkers? Nope. But they will walk around in skivvies. As do I at times. Again - big deal.
I have one that would be naked 24/7 and one that shuts & locks the door to pee. Age differences accounting.
What I think is relevant...is how this was handled during marriage? OP says Dad has done this in the past as well. I mean, there were times during my marriage when my (then) 6 yr. old came and asked to crawl into bed and one of us parents was naked. We weren't bouncing around the bed like it was a trampoline or anything...just wrapped ourselves a bit more, er, 'securely' in the sheets & carried on as if nothing was amis. And, I wouldn't consider myself extremely modest or extremely liberal re; nudity.
