    It depends. My mum would always get out of the shower and walk naked to her bedroom, for as far as I can remember. So it never a shock or anything to see her naked and we barely noticed it.

    My dad never did this.

    So if my father one day had suddenly started doing this I would have been shocked.

    I also walk naked from the shower to my bedroom and my child sees me naked. He does not even take notice. He thinks that being naked is not wearing a shirt.

    Depends on how nudity has been treated in the household.

    In a naturalist household or at least in some, nudity within the house, at the beach, pool, and various other places is fully accepted and normal for the parents and the children to be nude around each other.

    Somewhere around the age of 10 or 11 expect the children to start asking questions. Some children at that point will feel they need to start covering up others will feel completely comfortable with the nudity.

    Peers and outside sources start having more influence on the children at that age. Boyfriends or girlfriends start saying things like it's wierd, not normal, perverted. If you have been raised with the belief that nudity is wrong, nasty, only for sexual situations, or just plain unacceptable then it seems normal to push those beliefs on others.

    So seeing a parent nude would definitely feel unacceptable and wrong.

    Nudity is not sex, nor does one equal or justify the other.

        If she is not embarrassed by it then you shouldn't be.

        That being said, if you can't see her nude without sexual feelings or even just staring at her. Then you should just tell her that you feel uncomfortable when she is nude around you.

        Does she do this purposely or are these just accidental glimpses?

            You said half naked are you talking topless, bottomless, a towel wrap, or nude standing talking to you.

            Either way if it's just when something important comes up and it's just glimpses, then I would say normal. Try to ignore the glimpse and just look at the face or eyes when responding.

            I'll still say it comes back to your upbringing and if they are not embarrassed then you should not be.

            If you're young 14 to 20 it's not unusual for our bodies and minds to get confused about sex and nudity.

    I've seen my dad naked all the time. He owns his house he can walk around without clothing if he wants (helps he only had boys). My mom? Only when I open the door without knocking. I knock now

    Pretty normal to occasionally see your parents naked.

        Mine for my mom was sudden disgust and eye ball bleaching kind of reaction. So... normal considering I was a kid and that was my mom.

        For my dad we normally take saunas so him being naked is more common than most people.

    Normal. My parents are super religious but growing up my mother was always in her underthings or less by 10 pm. Our bedtime was 9 pm so we were also in nighties or pj's by then. On school days she seldom dressed before we left for school. She'd usually be dressed when we got home but not always. She is 71 and is still that way when I come visit with my family.

    Now that I have kids, I'm not as bold as my mother, but I'm basically the same way but not as much

        Since I didn't have any other influences that way... No. I didn't feel embarrassed having a nude or scantily clad mother. I honestly didn't think anything of it the first times my friends showed up with me and saw my mother nude or in her underthings. It wasn't until I learned more about that stuff from friends at school that I learned embarrassment about home nudity. I was not happy to feel like I should always be clothed too.

      I avoid it at all costs. You were lucky. I wasnt and that's why I learned to knock before entering my parents room.
