Parenting is tricky ya'll.
For real.
Currently I'm trying to teach my kids not to run outside naked.
Not to play with themselves when they are around others.
Oh, and to stop them from touching my "parts".
But the thing is I'm trying to teach them these lessons without also inadvertently giving them self-esteem and body issues.
I'd like them to be comfortable in their bodies and sexuality.
Cause not being, well, I've done that. Not so great.
Like I said, tricky.

LMAO! When one of my sons was 3 years old I had to watch the front door because if he was in his underwear he'd make a run for it and I'd have to chase him around the yard. I didn't discourage it. I was usually running and laughing at the same time. He's still proud of his body to this day. Thanks again for visiting and commenting on my blog all these years.

Phil - I love your blog and hope you never stop writing again!

I'm not so worried about my son in his underwear, but my daughter . . .:)

oh - and the above comment was me forgetting to log out my husband and log in as me.
