My brother is 10 and he 'knows what everything means' lol, it really depends on how mature they are for their age.... it may be a phase... it may not
most 10 year olds i know are quite mature so I cant really sayMy son and his 10yo friend have a bath and sleep in the same bed together naked?
Well, it is not normal for them to sleep together naked and take baths together naked at 10 years old. Also, wearing the same underwear can lead to infections in the private area. I suggest you let them wear their own underwear and make them sleep with their clothes on and take separate baths. Tell them two boys should not sleep in the same bed naked and take baths together naked because it could lead to the impression that they are gay and that they are too old for that.
I wouldn't allow it. At the age of about 9 they are learning lots and lots if stuff at school, and becoming curious about the same and opposite sex. It's probably not a good idea to allow this. I don't think that there is a problem with them being in their boxers or whatever around eachother. I would just explain to them that they are getting a little too old for that and that they can sleep in the same room, just not together under the same blankets, and that they need to take baths by themselves.
And no it doesn't mean that he's ';gay'; that is being immature about the situation. It's just a curious age and I wouldn't encourage what they are doing.
if i remember correctly, by the time i was 10 (5th grade), there were boy and girl dances and we certainly had at least some understanding and awareness of our bodies. just that alone suggests that this is not an appropriate activity for the boys to be participating in. no reason for them to take joint baths or sleep in the same bed (unless it is a larger bed). this has much less to do with homosexuality concerns, and more to do with teaching them what is, and is not, appropriate behavior with others. as someone else noted, they are not toddlers. you would be well-advised to get this situation under control and set some boundaries.
I have a ten year old son too, who also has a friend come and sleep over almost every weekend and longe around in their briefs. However, they do not take a bath together, nor do they sleep in the same bed naked together. This would never happen in my house.
They are NOT toddlers anymore, and to me, this kind of behaviour would be totally unacceptable! Why is their any question whether this is acceptable or not?! What I am saying is, NO this is not ok!
This could possibly be a stage that they are undergoing or they could just be really good friends. At 10, this can't be too good though. You may want to make them go in their bathing suits in the bath, and sleep in pajamas in the bed together but make sure that you be careful and not make it seem like being gay is alright.
Does the friends parents know that this goes on in your home? If I was them I would for sure never let my son come back to your house. They are way to old for bathing together and sleeping naked together. Kids mature fast nowadays and I am sure they have an idea about their bodies. There is nothing ok about what is going on.
first off if you dont like it why would you let him. i think this depends on their maturity level. i mean thats a close call. bath i can see but sleeping together naked is kind of a cause for concern. i wouldnt even let my 4 year old sleep naked with another 4 year old. i wouldnt make a big deal about just ask him to put on his pj's next time. or sit down and explain your rules. dont make him feel weird for it though. i wouldnt worry about them wearing eachothers underpants. and being gay is all right
This is not acceptable for ten year olds. If they were three okay. You'd better be careful who you broadcast this to... someone will call child services on you, as well they should. If you are the parent of a ten year old you should know better than this.
if they were 2 or 3 it would be harmless...10? ARE YOU CRAZY! the fact that you had to ASK says you know its not right! where is the other childs MOTHER!!!!!!!! you better not let your local CPS get a wind of that!
they are kids they dont really now any better i did that a bit but its cuz i saw alot of tv..lol..wierd! anyways just talk to them and tell them they arent supposed to do it. its normal i think for there age. they are just exploring stuff ya know.
OK i realy think this is realy werid. Talk to your son i mean wareing each others breifs is ok but going to bed naked thats wrong. i would alk to him about and y he does it. i kinda had that but i was like 7 or 8.
OMG THATS SICK!
And yes they do know better im 11 and hell no i dont take baths with my friend... You need to hav them see a docter about this... and YEAH im a kid my opinions are just as good as yours! (if not better)
Although it is probably perfectly harmless, I do think that at ten years old they should be encouraged to wear clothes in each other's presence.
They might be a bit old for that, but there's nothing wrong with it really. So long as you're comfortable and they're comfortable, you're fine.
Yeah Right.
If you don't think this is weird and wrong, you're either a terrible parent or some j@ckoff goofing on the parenting site. Idiot.
it is perfectly normal and acceptable!
yerv i mean like i had a shower with my friend wen i was little , it might sound pervey , but nothing happened . sleepin naked ??? ermm well yer i guess hes only 10 , their just having fun
Yet another weido gets his kicks at the expense of some people who will not see the truth here.
10???That is too old to be doing all that naked. Gosh, dress your kids properly.
No, they should wear PJ's when they sleep and pants when they are playing.
10 year old boys don't know that difference, i am sure that its fine.
since when do ten year olds take baths?
and yeah, thats kinda really weird.
Gross! You should totally make them STOP! I'm mean litteraly that's just GROSS! :{
i think so ,but not for alot longer.
why do they sleep naked anyway ,cant you buy pyjamas?
I think I'd nip that one in the bud. They seem a little old for that!
Doesn't sound good to me!!!!
Gross, where is your parenting?
I think they are too old for that, but again that's just my opinion
And you allow this?
no.
Quick! Find the Troll Zappper!
