Am I right? My husband walks around nude?

My husband walks around nude in front of my 8 year old son and 6year old daughter. We argue about this constantly, he tells me he'll stop but then does it again. My daughter says "Daddy" like she's uncomfortable. i think he thinks its funny. What do you people think?

Wow I guess I'm really surprised by the responses, and I thought I felt strongly.
I guess I should say that he does put his hands over the general area and its like just when he enters or exits the bathroom to shower or dress. I don't think it makes a difference though. I was on the phone with his parents once and I even said it white his mom was on the other line. Her response was like I was picking on him or being a *****. So thats why I asked the question.

I really don't believe the nonsense that seeing parents nude will scar a child, but I do believe your husband should respect his children's feelings and practice a little modesty in the household. No one wants to see their parents nude. Yuck! I've had the misfortune of seeing my parents nude occasionally and it is very unpleasant.
As far as judging my own body by comparison to theirs, that's ridiculous. Instant reaction is to look away. Anything that I saw was but a blur, and that wasn't even a conscious decision. Then again, I was raised to believe that there was nothing wrong with the human body and that it was a beautiful thing, but is not to be flaunted in front of others. Perhaps those fragile children that supposedly were scarred by nudity simply need parents that will take time to teach them about life.
Sorry, ranted a bit. >,<
Next time you try and talk to him about it, see if you can convince him to ask the kids if they are embarrassed when he walks out of the bathroom. You don't have to use the words "nude" or "naked". It'll be easier on them if you don't and they're old enough to know what you mean without saying it. If he won't listen to you, certainly he will listen to them! If not, you could ask him to at least wear a towel around his waist. If he's even too lazy or stubborn to do that, try getting his clothes out for him and leave them on the bathroom counter. No reason to walk out naked if your clothes are right there, right? Maybe he will take the hint eventually. It's obviously more of an issue for you than it is for him, so you may have to do things to make it more convenient for him. You shouldn't have to, but you can't always make someone see things your way.
I hope this advice helps and good luck! Good luck to those poor kids too! Especially the daughter! Ewww.

I just want to add that I think it's unfair for so many to call your husband a "pervert". My husband also likes to walk to the bedroom to dress. It keeps his clothes from getting all steamy in the bathroom, and gives his body a nice breezy trip to the bedroom to dry off before putting them on. This is especially helpful when you plan to wear bluejeans and don't feel like hanging out in the moist bathroom long enough for your skin to dry. Not to mention that deodorant usually doesn't work well enough unless you put it on after your skin dries. And there's nothing wrong with enjoying being nude! He doesn't do this anymore, as we have a 3 yr old daughter, but he certainly isn't a pervert. He was the first one to start avoiding situations where our daughter saw us nude. For instance, she has already long ago learned not to walk into a bathroom when someone else is in there.
I'm sorry so many have been so cruelly judgmental toward your husband. It seems most likely that he really doesn't agree that anything is wrong with it, especially considering his mothers' reaction, and that he thinks it's silly for you to think that it embarrasses your daughter. He likely feels that you're overreacting and finds that amusing. That's my opinion, but only you can know for sure. You could try asking him if this is how he feels. In my experience, men often just shrug things off when women start expressing feelings and don't offer their own input unless provoked.

I think he's an exhibitionist and possibly a pervert. If he is okay making his daughter uncomfortable then he doesn't need to be around his daughter.

If the children are uncomfortable, it is very wrong. Tell him that he needs to start wearing clothes in the house, or you'll leave. It is your job as a mother to protect them. A man doesn't just forget to put on clothes around his children. He's getting something from it...I'm not saying he's a perv...but maybe he likes the attention. Tell him to find another way to joke around with the kids. If he still does it, then he is a sick perv and needs some major help...then kick him out. Would you let a close neighbor or someone walk around your kids naked and make them feel uncomfortable?? You shouldn't let their father do it either. Call the cops if it doesn't stop. Good luck.

i think he is sick, an needs help. you should keep a close eye on him, especially with your daughter


confused&lt;3
Well, I think you should make him stop...not like that is possible making someone do something, but if your daughter is uncomfortable then yeah, you could research a family counselor and have them make a house call, with what you just said I am sure you would get an immediate response...

This question shouldn't even be asked. I'm sorry you should know this answer. You need to tell you immature husband that walking around nude is disrespectful to the kids and needs to stop immediately.. End of story!!!


pollita_34
It's time to say "bye, bye birdie. If he is this disrespectful, what is to keep him from doing worse things when he is alone with your daughter. Do it ASAP.

He should only walk around you in the nude. He is doing wrong to show himself to his children. God says we are only to be nude for our spouses. He should cover himself around the children. He is disrespecting his children and you.

I totally agree. He should be ashamed of himself

That is just totally wrong. He is scaring the children. When I was married, no kids, I would walk around nude but I would not do it if any kids were invloved. I would put your foot and tell him to stop and what harm he might be causing to the children.

He has gone mad, really mad. Tell him the kids are grown up and they understand everything, so stop it immediately. You can take him (ur husband) for a psychiatric check up, seriously.

this is a problem! he could problby get in trouble for exposing himself to minors---if he does it again i would flip out on him so he knows your serious about it. then give him the boot next time it happens

I don't think it is right and I'm guessing Child Protective Services may think about the same thing. What happens when your children tell someone that their dad is doing this? It is inappropriate.

he needs to cover up, it is wrong and could get him and you in trouble, if the authorities find out he is waking around nude in front of the kids, he may be a child predator

100% something is wrong in his mind.He does not respect the children,and he does not respect you.Tell him, that if he does not stop doing that,you will call the police;and for sure he can be in jail.if he does not care about it,call the police.He has big problems in his mind,is clear in this case.

That's not right at all.. he needs to be wearing something (at least undwear!) around the kids. It's bad enough to behave that way in front of anyone at all, but to do so in front of your children.. is completely unacceptable.

My husband has a habit of wearing just his underwear around the house, in the evenings.. I have a problem with that (I think people should be dressed.. not running around in their underwear), so I would not even almost accept it if he chose to wear nothing at all. That's disgusting!

You know, you should tell your husband that his behavior could actually cause social services to get involved.. if your children were to say anything about it to anyone. It's not funny.. and he needs to realize that what he's doing is not only tacky and setting a bad example, but it could also bring legal problems, if certain people/agencies find out about what he's doing.

I wouldn't accept that kind of behavior.. absolutely not. If my husband insisted on walking around the house nude.. he would be doing it somewhere else. That's just uncalled for.. especially in front of the children.

I don't know WHY some guys think their bodies are so great... Next time when your husband walks around nude, you and your son and daughter laugh and point at his "lower midsection". If this doesn't work, invite a girlfriend over without his knowing, and tell her to look at him like he is disgusting. Maybe he'll get the idea.
