The sad part of this is, that jjinohio2 posted this nearly 3 and a half years ago and that was his only post. Good people have offered good advice and we don't know if he was even serious about his post. My hopes are some person in a similar situation has had some benefit from all this advice cause it just may have fallen on a deaf ear.

Do you have any nude Photographs of them when they were young? If so, get them out & look through them together. Also, if you have a secluded place to go skinny-dipping or nude sun-bathing together (private pool,creek etc.) GO! Doing this as a Family will be easier for them as opposed to going naked in front of strangers.
Once they get use to it they will likely enjoy being seen naked, then they will be comfortable naked in front of everyone.

I think this is also a relationship issue, and not just an age (teenager) issue. Have the parents cultivated the habit of discussions about life, philosophy, world cultures? Do the children see the parents as complete people in their own rights, or are they (as has been allowed to happen far too often) ONLY Mom and Dad? Yes, I know that works both ways, and too many children are mere extensions of the parent's egos. I say that when a proper relationship is cultivated and encouraged, then talking about sticky subjects (and everything can be sticky with a teenager!) is managable. Teenagers are tough, but they are the adults of the future, and worth becoming acquainted with, in my opinion. And if we are not willing to talk and get them to talk about nonnudist issues, then I don't hold out much hope for a relationship transformation about nudism. Let them become acquainted with the real people you are apart from the social nudist venue, and you might succeed.

My youngast son was just here yesterday, and the three of us had a great conversation, with great give and take as equals. He told us some things we did not know, and we told him some things he did not know. No, it was not about social nudity, but my point is that that kind of friendship is not an accident, I cultivated it all his life, and Gerry did too, when he became part of the family. We could always talk. I hope we always shall be able too.

Being a naturist is about being real, not about being naked. If the parents are always real, then Teens learn they can be, too.

As a 15 year-old boy, ( admin, please don't kick me out for being "underage") I know that being naked in front of them without informing them would be awkward. If they agree, take them to a clothing-optional resort and let them get a feel for the place. Just whatever you do, don't lay it all on them at once or else it will make the situation weird.

Diger, please feel free to spread the word. Gerry really likes how I put it also. I may even make it my signature.

"Naturism is about being real, not about being naked."

Mariarose: Love your quote.

I have recently told my 12, 12, & 9 yr old boys about my being a nudist & while they aren't up for being nude themselves, the accept this about me. They don't mind my being nude in front of them but prefer not to be nude in front of me. I think it helped that I wouldn't necessarily hide myself in front of them (do a few chores before my bath nude or walk from shower to room nude) & I've always been fairly open with them on other topics. The only thing that really surprised them is that I want to go to a nudist resort. They didn't even blink an eye when I told them my first professional massage would be done in the nude by both me & my masseur. They just didn't want to see me getting it or see "Naked Dan" as they call my masseur/friend. (BTW: He thinks that moniker is cute!)

For me when I got into nudism without the help of parents I was around 15 and I would have loved for family to have been involved so that I could have learned that being nude is acceptable and normal. But at least sit down and talk to them, my parents had gone to nude resorts without me and my sister but yet when my mom found out I enjoyed nudism she never told me or admitted going to the nude resort.
