if she’s uncomfortable, it’s time for him to cover up, no ifs, ands or buts about it
Tell him it makes her uncomfortable, which is normal. He should stop when she’s at his home. As a whole, it’s healthy to see the body as simply a body.
He should never of been naked in front of her.
I would be very upset. That’s inappropriate. At the age where children notice things, that’s it… and even then I don’t think it’s ok for him or any man to urinate in front of her
I’m pretty shocked at how many people are uncomfortable with nakedness. I guess I haven’t given it much thought my son is four and always barges in on me in the tub. Genitals are really just another body part. However, as others have said, if she is uncomfortable then he should cover up.
I dont think its appropriate at all to see it
I’m old school, so I think that’s not appropriate
If she feels uncomfortable then its certainly no longer ok.
If she’s old enough to tell
You that it made her feel a type of way, then it’s time he start covering up. There should be no push back from him.
Ummm never. What the fuck? Where’s your common sense?
The only reason I see an issue is because she said she was uncomfortable. She’s uncomfortable so I’d just lett him know.
My kid is 3 and has no idea of the concept of privacy. It’s not weird unless you make it weird. I already spent a year with my boobs hanging out while I breastfed.
Very inappropriate for her to see his penis.
Welp clearly she stated she was uncomfortable so that should be the end of it.
Eh. When a child starts noticing the difference is when it should stop. Since she’s uncomfortable I’d let him know without coming off as attacking. Simply say " hey (daughter) has told me it makes her feel uncomfortable when you urinate with her in the bathroom and she didn’t know how to tell you". And take it from there
Okay so. Ignore all the people saying “never”. That attitude is really unhealthy and is something sexual health educators are trying hard to break down.
You need to have a bigger talk with your daughter and your ex.
I don’t see how at five she is suddenly saying seeing her dad’s penis at 3 one time made her uncomfortable.
There isn’t a clear picture painted here which is probably part of why you’re getting such varied opinions.
If you don’t fully understand the context of what your child is expressing discomfort with. Step one is finding out exactly what. If this is a current issue. Or if this really is a memory from two years ago. But that’s a lot less likely, truthfully.
Bottom line is she is uncomfortable and he needs to respect that and ensure he is working within her comfort level.
Second of all, it’s totally find to teach kids not to freak out about nudity and that a body is a body.
But we must also teach them about their own consent and bodily autonomy. We must teach these things but please avoid the alarmist OMG NAKED HUMAN IS SO INAPPROPRIATE AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Kind of attitude. Please. We need less of that. More “people existing and having bodies and being naked is fine. What is not fine is people not respecting each other’s boundaries. You get to choose your boundaries.”
Like honestly I’m a single mom and I know a lot of single dad’s and moms and you know what 3 year olds often see their parents pee!!! Like…there’s a reason there are millions of memes and jokes about parents not getting to pee alone.
But at five? No. No your child can go off and entertain themself for five minutes and dont need to be invading the bathroom.
Like again…it’s hard to give you any advice without knowing exactly what the context is because I’m not buying “five year old is remembering seeing Dad pee when she was three” unless that event was in some way traumatizing…
Idk more context definitely needed. And you need to talk more with your child. And your ex.
I’d tell him to keep his clothes on in front of her. If he needs to go to the bathroom, he can shut the door behind him. Also he doesn’t need to be in the bathroom with her if she’s bathing. He can cover his eyes or give her something to cover herself. She’s old enough wanting privacy. If any other man would see him walking around like that in front of her, they may also think it’s ok. When my kids were babies, I didn’t undress in front of them.
I think body parts are normal. Being naked in your house at times is normal. Teaching proper terms for body parts to kids Is essential. If the child feels weird about seeing it then just make sure he closes the door when he pees from now on. I live in a house where I always leave the door open to pee. I get barged in on anyways
Wow some of y’all need to grow up
Let dad know she feels uncomfortable with him peeing in front of her,
Our family we walk around naked eg after shower and drying to walk to bed room to get dressed it is normal
I think when they notice a difference it should stop. I used to take showers with my oldest until he was about 2 and started asking questions.
Document it and speak to him about covering up and that it’s appropriate. If he finds it to be offencive then I would worry about it, then if be speaking to someone.
Boobs, Vagina, Penis. All normal things we have as human beings. My kids know proper terminology and I have taught them not to stigmatize these things.
It’s her father, Based on what you said it’s not like he’s whipping it out just because . What if he has to pee when they are at dinner or shopping alone.
The child feeling uncomfortable is the only issue here mention it to dad & see if he can reassess his boundaries. But I’m amazed and quite saddened by the amount of comments that think it’s disgusting/wrong for their kids to see them naked
If your daughter states that it makes her uncomfortable than it is absolutely inappropriate and needs to be stopped immediately.
If I have to go when my kids are bathing or whatever i close the curtain and go. But im also a female and im sitting down with parts covered anyway. My man doesnt go if the kids are in the bathroom and he always closes the door unless its just us (him and i) in the house
Did she just say that? Or were you making a big deal out of it? Things only become sexualized because adults make jt that way. It’s part of the human body. Everyone has either a penis or vagina or boobs. No big deal unless you make it one.
Tell him it makes her uncomfortable. He loves her he’ll stop :). Same with anything else , just in this case nakedness .
5 they don’t know the human anatomy. Daddy needs to man up and put his clothes on especially if u are not around to see what’s going on This is about boundaries and your daughter feeling comfortable. This is just strange… yes I think it’s very very inappropriate for dads to be naked around their daughters
If SHE is uncomfortable, talk to the dad. My 2 year old knows dad has a penis and he has a penis. We can’t shut our bathroom door when we shower so my son just walks in and out as he pleases. As well as when we are going to the bathroom. It honestly depends on the household I think. But for sure if your daughter isn’t comfortable then I suggest talking to the dad
Maybe you should talk to her father together, it’s not your feelings he will consider but hers! If your child doesn’t like it then he will stopped for her trust me! Never involved your opinion into what your child wants! Because sometimes we just want to be an ass to the other parent but kids feelings are separate!
my son is 3 and he knows the difference between boy and girl but hes my child he came out of me idc if he sees me naked. now if he ever expresses hes uncomfortable about it I’ll adjust but it’s my house if I wanna walk around naked damn it that’s what I’m doing lol
It’s totally fine unless the child or parent is uncomfortable. It’s not weird or sexual.
If she walked in on him in the bathroom then you teach her about privacy if she’s uncomfortable And try to only be naked in private. If it doesn’t bother her than it should not matter.
In some cultures it’s normal to be naked around each other. We are so afraid of bodies and nudity in our culture. Personally i think it’s great to normalize nudity.
If she is uncomfortable, it shouldnt happen. I’ve showered and gone potty with my daughter watching since she was an infant (she’s almost 5 now). Recently she said something about me being naked (I dont remember what exactly) and I sat down and talked to her. I asked if it made her uncomfortable she said no. I told her if it starts making her uncomfortable, she needs to tell me. Her dad wasnt around for the first almost 4 years of her life so I also told her that only mommy and her can do that. If she tells me she is uncomfortable, I’ll stop immediately
I never seen my dad and really think they don’t need to see it
Does she know what the term “uncomfortable” means? It’s a very hard word to explain. Even as adult.
My kids are 14 11 6 and 2 I wear clothes if she’s at the age of letting U know it feels uncomfortable speak up
Yes it is weird. And I would tell him that your daughter feels weird with him walking around naked or peeing in front of her. So to cover up!
He needs to stop that are be put in jail if it was me that is right where he would be
idk our whole family is a naked family…its only sexualized if u make it that way …boobs r jist boobs ment for feeding babies and penises are ment for peeing with ect …people over sexualizing is why the world is what it is today …why girls cant show ther shoulders in school because boys might get ideas …bodies are just bodies
Just put clothes on …
Okay but like, you suspect hes touching her cause he was raised to be comfy with his body??? You raised your kid to think its wrong to ever be exposed of course she thinks it’s strange her father follows a different pattern then you. Talk to him and establish good co-parenting guidelines for how you BOTH want your daughter raised. If there is other evidence he touched her go to the fuckin cops. If the only thing making you think he touched her is the fact hes chill being naked go learn about some other cultures and realize your way isnt the only right or okay way. Is that so hard?
Daddy put some pants on
Yea umm I dont believe parents should be walking around naked. Your child or not. I think it’s wrong personally. Yes I have showered with my oldest and I even have with my youngest (both girls) but yea I’m not gonna walk around but ass naked in front of them. I sure as fuck didnt wanna see my parents snatch or penis what makes you think your kids want too?! Just saying! Unfortunately I seen me father naked one time and I seriously want to get the image burnt out of my brain!
It sounds like your the one who is uncomfortable with it. I think this is being way over sexualized and I really don’t understand why you would immediately jump from 5 year old being uncomfortable to wondering about molestation? That’s a heavy accusation over a father peeing in front of his 5 year old daughter. If this were a son and mother we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. Stop sexualizing everything. Children don’t think that way unless they’re taught to.
If your daughter feels uncomfortable then obviously have a chat to the father about it, just explain how she feels. But also talk to your daughter ask why it makes her feel uncomfortable what about it is uncomfortable for her? Is it because daddy is a boy so has different bits then her or what?. I think every household is different, i have 4 and half boy 2 year old boy and 8 month old girl me and there father (still together) are naked in front of them, i still shower with my boys and dad showers with our daughter too i personally dont see a problem with it.
Stop when it becomes uncomfortable.
Honestly if your daughter is feeling uncomfortable, tell the father it needs to stop.
If a child can self manage needs they shouldn’t be seeing private parts *learning to toilet train or requiring full assistance in shower are what I feel is acceptable. A child shouldn’t be made to feel uncomfortable
5 years old is way too old to be seeing her father naked. Shes old enough to understand what a penis is and understand that it makes her uncomfortable
He needs to put clothes on. She’s getting to the point where she can remember that stuff long term and no daughter needs that visual. Anybody who thinks you are over reacting doesn’t realize how women are bombarded with sexual propositions or how early it starts so he is the opposite sex parent and he needs to stop normalizing adult male nudity to a little girl. He probably doesn’t even consider it cause he’s a man but he needs to learn to be more sensitive to preserving her childhood.
Definitely a no no cover up
Well your child is saying she’s uncomfortable so it has to stop
Can I just point out that just because she has seen him pee does not automatically jump to him touching her inappropriately. . . . .
If by accident, ok. Intentional, not appropriate. Cover up when she is around!
Encourage your daughter to say something to him in a funny/joking way next time. Like ”daddy, go put your pants on. I don’t want to see that!” He’ll get the point.
OMG people the man was trying to pee! What is wrong with this group. She said he used to walk around the house naked but doesnt anymore. She said he was trying to pee when the kid walked in… this post is just stupid. Tell the kid to get out of the bathroom. The poor guys gotta pee. If I was peeing and my kids walked in would you think its inappropriate? A 5 year old should know about privacy and boundries teach her to get out of the bathroom when dads in there… what’s he supposed to do wait until shes asleep at night too pee?
I dont give a shit how much we love our bodies and how natural shit is, its INAPPROPRIATE for a child to see her fathers dick! Quit making shit complicated and use your brain!
If she is uncomfortable it’s time for him to cover up. But I see nothing wrong with his actions
My daughter is 5 and is getting to this stage too. Kids just love to barge into the bathroom whenever we have to go. Now that she is noticing differences between boys/girls I keep telling them its private time in the bathroom. But especially if it makes her uncomfortable I would just tell him to make sure the door is closed. My kids just have no boundaries and as adults we would like our privacy.
What a role model no it’s probably not okay what kind of message does that send and why would you want to expose yourself in front of your children of the opposite sex at that
Bruh my dad would never
Tell him to put some damn pants on or he won’t see her! That’s rediculous!
Hell to the fuck no!!! Pre pedifilei
When she says she is uncomfortable or when she starts asking questions
If you don’t think anything inappropriate is going on than just tell him. Tell him she is uncomfortable and that he needs to change something or she can’t see him.
If she’s old enough to tell you she’s uncomfortable then uh, that should answer your question…
If it’s making her uncomfortable tell the dad and ask him to kindly put pants on when she’s around so that she still wants to go and visit him instead of saying she doesn’t because his nudity makes her uncomfortable
My daughter is a year old she has never seen her daddy nakes he wont even leave the door open while he pees if she is up he will close the door to the bed room.if he is changing
If you are on good terms you might have chat with him about it. Don’t come at him hot or anything. Just be calm and non accusatory. Explain that she shared with you that seeing him naked is making her uncomfortable and suggest that maybe it is time for him to stop walking around naked in front of her.
He shouldn’t be naked around her at all. Never. Not from any age. Especially now that she’s able to tell you she’s uncomfortable. She should know women and men have different anatomy, but she shouldn’t be seeing it at age 5. ESPECIALLY not from her father. If her father does it, she may think it’s okay for other men to show their genitalia to her and it isn’t.
Did she tell him that it made her uncomfortable? Nothing is wrong with body parts. Baby girl needs to tell daddy that she isnt comfortable seeing him naked anymore and then daddy needs to resepct that and put some boxers on.
I prefer them to know body parts. That’s not a big deal. And I want them to knoq their space. I would listen to your daughter. And go from their. I personally have my son get ready for bed. And i keep my daughter occupied. I dont think its something they should see. Talk to him about it.
If your child tells you their uncomfortable. You listen to them. You take that seriously! Point blank period.
There’s nothing wrong when they’re little but the minute they become uncomfortable it’s time to stop. Tell Dad he needs to respect the fact that his daughter is uncomfortable
Listen to your daughter
If she said it made her uncomfortable you have to talk to her Dad. I have a young daughter who doesn’t understand how her wearing short night shorts or a tshirt that doesn’t reach her knees makes her uncles uncomfortable. They brought it to me. I brought it to her. And now everyone is comfortable. If he is unwilling, then that’s when you need to put your foot down because respecting her feelings should be his number one priority, not his need to walk around naked.
When either her or her father are uncomfortable. If she isn’t ok with it, it is time for him to stop.
She’s a girl he is a man it should be a line of respect and modesty not to be nude in front of her. Yes genitals are normal and natural but it would make me uncomfortable if my husband just walked around balls hanging in front of our son or daughter. Even now my son is about to turn one and when I’m using the bathroom or showering he be all up in my junk and i tell him to move😂
if your child is saying they are uncomfortable, LISTEN!!!
Before you start jumping to conclusions on how it happened make sure it wasn’t something that happened inadvertently
Tell him knock it off DHS HIS NAKED ASS my ex’s family walk in while mom or dad were takeing baths shame on him protect your daughter
Is she saying she was uncomfortable in reference to seeing him when she was 3 or are you meaning to say that she’s seen him naked again recently? IMO 5 is too old to have him completely naked in her presence or in a situation where she can walk in on him.
It’s great that she feels like she can tell you when something like that makes her uncomfortable though.
Id just address it with him.
I think it’s good to be open about body parts and such but you can be open without her seeing her father naked. Especially if it made her uncomfortable. His reaction to her comfort level will tell you all you need to know about how to proceed.
A no, no. Put on shorts. Both of you. Also cloth your children
Um after the baby stage it really isn’t appropriate at all
I say it stops when she becomes uncomfortable… my daughter when she was younger had baths with her dad he doesn’t now but as soon as your daughter started saying things and questioning things I say you stop it then
If it makes her uncomfortable tell him and if he keeps doing it she shouldn’t be allowed over!
If she is old enough to voice that it makes her uncomfortable, it is time for him to stop.
If she is not comfortable then he needs to respect that. Hes a man and if she dont wanna see her dad penis then he needs to cover up regardless of how he feels. At that point it is inappropriate.
Tell him to put his clothes on! Period. That’s ridiculous that he is even doing that.
If she’s uncomfortable, he needs to respect that and cover up.
If she is expressing discomfort it needs to stop NOW… you need to have a calm conversation with him telling him that she talked to you about it and it’s unacceptable and he needs to be dressed and use the bathroom in private. If he loves his daughter he will gladly change his ways, if he doubts you or disagrees with what your asking, tell he will not be allowed to see her until he dies …NO JUDGE ANYWHERE WILL TAKE HIS SIDE ON THIS, let him make all the threats or nasty comments that he chooses ( if he chooses ) when a child says they are uncomfortable in ANY situation … you listen ~ good luck
If she is expressing that she is uncomfortable, then it is time to put an end to it. I am a mom of boys and only one daughter. I have always shut my door to undress and use the restroom, but they have come in on me in various stages of undress. I never made it a big deal. I didn’t want them to feel shame, or have poor body image problems. So, I would let her father know that it’s time to start closing the door, and explain to your daughter that if the door is closed, what is behind it is something she prefer not to see. But making it a big deal can backfire and make her prematurely curious.
I have 3 daughters I do not let my husband even walk from the shower to the room in a towel. My daughters also don’t walk around in underwear or shirts off I think it is absolutely inappropriate.
Your all jumping on saying about how he needs to put pants on etc… she walked in on him having a pee
He USED to walk around naked…
the worst part of this is she added on the end ‘I don’t think he touched her’
I don’t think you need to be telling your ex anything bar please make sure the door is locked.
In my house as kids we never had a locked bathroom door we simply said when one of us was going to the toilet to stop someone walking in.
Shocked at these comments for a simple accident
He needs to wear pants… Period…
No no no and no 5?
Hell no keep an eye out cause thats a hell no for me!
Not appropriate at all. Not trying to come off judgemental but as an adult he should know that shit. I’m uncomfortable for her.
She’s to old to be seeing anyone’s private parts. It could be innocent but if she says something at school it might get misconstrued and end up with CPS at your door.
She shouldnt have ever seen it…that is her father…disrespectful and inappropriate on his part.
