At what ages does it become inappropriate for a big sister to see her little brother in the buff?

Is he any sort of special needs? I have 3 boys and at the age of 9 they would have been mortified to have people see them naked and just run around nude. I know ever kid is different but at some point they need to learn appropriate boundries about modesty.

I have 4 boys and it wasn't until around 9 or 10 that they started to even care about it. None of mine are special needs either. As long as it was in our house nudity was simply never an issue.

Just last week my 12 year old was in the shower and realized he didn't have any shampoo. He called out and his older sister brought him some.

Bodies are just bodies. Nudity does not equal S*x.

As soon as either one is uncomfortable with it.

This is how it is in my house.

Exactly

I really don't understand the people that say otherwise. Like I posted a month or two ago about my kids' doctor doing a quick genital exam at yearly physicals and a bunch of people freaked out saying that was completely inappropriate. I just don't get it.

Me and my little brother have a similar age difference to OP's kids and growing up, I saw him naked all the time. In my opinion, it's completely fine, and if anything, it's educational for your daughter.

Educational?

[luvthagirl]

I started younger. 4.

Did you start exactly on the 4th birthday?

Meaning she knows exactly what boys have down there, and doesn't have to find out from some other means.

Do you mean sexual educational?

No, at least where I live sexual education is very poor, the most they show in school are some crappy drawings.
