Boys and Sleepwear or Lack Thereof - How Old?

Answered 9 months ago

At what age do boys typically stop wearing pjs - or anything at all - to bed? Our kids know we sleep in the nude, and we have what’s become a family tradition of allowing them to also sleep in their “birthday suits” each year on their birthdays as a special treat. This year, our oldest turned 9 and asked if he could continue to sleep that way permanently “since you and Dad do too”. Of course we were ok with the request - kind of had to be since he’s just following our example - but also wondering if any other boys that young sleep nude on a regular basis. I’m sure most do by the teen years, but that’s still four years away for him.

I think it's perfectly fine. My DS (15) has been a full time nude sleeper since he was about 10 years old. Initially he did it to copy DH, I think, but now he really hates wearing anything in bed and can only sleep comfortably if he is c7ompletely naked.

I think it's fine. Our son (13) has slept in the nude for the last few year. What ever is most comfortable for them.

I started sleeping nude permanently in my teens, but did it often during the summer for several years before that. I was about 8 years old the first time I ever tried it, so I don’t think there’s really an age that’s “too young”. I initially did it just wanting to copy my dad, but it felt so amazingly freeing that I was sold from day one! I think your son is actually at an ideal age to be introduced to it because he’ll be used to it by the time he hits puberty so he won’t associate it exclusively with sexual stimulation the way he would if he were to begin as a teenager.

I think it's fine. Especially when it's hot in summer they wake up feeling more refreshed. As long as they are OK with it, I don't see a problem at what age they sleep naked.
