A naked body is beautiful, but in our society it is not customary to demonstrate it. People came up with clothes to hide their nature, and once parents begin to change clothes in the absence of kids. It is important to pass this moment correctly so that there is no negation of nudity and sexual complexes.
How to dress next to a child
Already at the age of three, the baby instinctively understands his belonging to one of the sexes. At this time, parents begin to gradually hide their naked body from the child. It is important not to stop changing clothes next to him at a time, but to do it gradually less and less. We are talking about people of the opposite sex. For example, the exposure of a man in front of a daughter or mother in front of a son needs to be reduced.
If a child has found you changing clothes, you don’t need to be scared and bashfully cover all parts of the body. This may form a wrong attitude, the child will catch the moment of embarrassment, may feel that you are treating the body as something not good, this may further affect its behavior. Just tell him that you need to change clothes, that you want to be beautiful, so he should wait in another room.
Nudity in society
In contemporary groups, naked people are left alone in three cases: when they belong to the same sex, when they are in an intimate relationship or under the influence of external circumstances that they cannot affect. At the same time, attitudes are formed that accompany everyone throughout their lives. Of course, there are exceptions, for example, nudists can be exposed in any situation, but this is a rare occurrence, not a given. It is important to explain to the child that they are not bad, but simply look at life differently. Refuse accusations towards those who have other views, tell the differences to your baby.
If you continue to change clothes next to a child at a conscious age, he may have doubts about his attitude to a particular gender. For example, if a daughter and mother dress up in front of a boy, and he understands that this is not customary in society, he begins to think about whether he is a boy? Such thoughts are characteristic in 10-13 years. It is easier to avoid such situations so as not to injure the psyche, or give a good explanation, calling it the tradition of your family.
