Springtime for a Teenage Nudist

· · Leave a comment

This morning I woke up nude and naked, just like I do every morning. I am a teenage nudist, so that shouldn’t seem so special. But this morning was different. I laid there in bed for a few minutes just enjoying the feel of the sheets covering my bare body. It’s so much more comfortable to sleep nude. No clothes to bind and pull at you while you sleep. I had a good stretch and noticed the sunshine beaming thru my window. My dog sleeps at my feet and she immediately jumped off the bed when she saw me pull the sheets away so I could get out of bed.

I stumbled out of my bedroom and wandered into the bathroom. I put my contacts in so I could see what I was doing, and then walked my naked self into the living room with my dog patiently waiting for me by the back door. Slowly I opened the door and stepped out onto our back porch, only to be greeted by the bright sunshine and the warm spring air.

I stood at the edge of the porch and reached up and had another good stretch while feeling the warm morning sun on my bare skin. It’s been a crazy winter. Abnormally cold and wet for our little piece of heaven here in Texas. But this day was the most beautiful day I have seen in a while, and I’ve been waiting all winter for a day like today.

I stepped off the end of the porch and took a long and leisure walk around the yard with my dog leading the way. I am so lucky to live out in the country where I can stroll around my yard naked without anyone seeing me. Letting the sunshine bathed my nude body and I felt the warm breeze blowing across my skin. I haven’t been this happy to be walking naked outdoors in a long while. I knew it was going to be a warm and sunny day, and I could not wait to get my day started.

We walked back into the house and I made my way to the kitchen and poured me a cup of coffee. My timing was perfect. Mom had breakfast ready and I made me a plate, grabbed my coffee and made my way back outside to enjoy my breakfast out on our patio. And it wasn’t long before I was joined by my sister and mother.

Everyone had smiles on our faces and we all agreed that today was going to be spent outside enjoying the beautiful day. The water in the pool was still too chilly for me to swim, but that didn’t stop my sister and me from laying out beside it and soaking up the sunshine. My sister and I have been sunbathing nude by this pool all of our lives. But I don’t remember a day that we could have been happier. The temperature was perfect, and I was in my own nudist heaven.

We ate lunch out by the pool and lounged around until the afternoon breeze turned a bit cool and the evening shadows dropped the temperature down enough to bring me back inside the house. I have missed the warm weather so much, and I look forward to more warm spring days to come. It’s been a rough winter for this teenage nudist girl. But I think our high heating bills are behind us!

As I type this I am ending the day as it started. With my nude body relaxing between the sheets of my bed. But this time I can feel the old familiar feeling of my sun kissed skin against the sheets. I may have a little sting on my skin from the sun, but oh how I have missed that feeling. I have been smiling all day, and I can’t wait to fall asleep so I can do it all over again tomorrow!

Nude Fun In Paradise

· · 1 Comment

It has been a while since I updated my blog, and I have absolutely nothing to say in my defense. Life gets in the way I guess. It has been a busy spring with typical teenage drama and those stupid boys that seem to distract you from what is best. Spring break has come and gone, so has Prom and the end of another school year. I should have taken the time to write it all down as it happened. But it seems once you get distracted, it’s hard to get back on track. I will try to catch everyone up in the next few blog post.

The spring was a busy blur of activities that has turned into the slow moving days of summer. My father’s job sent him to South America for a few weeks and he only returned for a few days and he was off again. But that enabled the family to pack up and go meet him for a beautiful vacation in Brazil. So after school let out for the summer, Mom and my sister and I flew down to stay at a beach rental on the coast of Brazil that my father found for us. It was such a beautiful and tropical place. We stayed for two lovely weeks and I have to admit that it was very hard to leave and return home.

While we were there we had a gorgeous beach that was mostly to ourselves. Plenty of sight-seeing but the best part for me was just spending lazy days on the beach in Paradise. The good part about Dad being in Brazil working all that time, was that he was able to find us a great place to vacation with enough seclusion for plenty of nude relaxation. We had to cover up occasionally if we encountered someone on the beach, but there were days where we had the beach to ourselves and saw no one at all.

Most afternoons you could find me napping in one of the hammocks, feeling the sea breeze across my naked skin. It was wonderful. The surf was not too bad on most days. Mom drove us to a beach that was a popular surfer hang out. But it was too crowded for any nude sunbathing or skinny dipping. But the beach that was in front of our cabin was where you would find me lazily baking my nude body in the sun.

The family made a group trip to the market to stock up on groceries before we even arrived at the beach house. And after we arrived I made sure that I wore as little as possible if I had to wear anything at all. Mom kept wanting us to go site seeing. And every day we spent on a guided tour was a day that we had to wear clothes. The rain forest is hot and humid. And even though I loved the adventure of it all, it would have been so much more enjoyable in the nude. Then one day we all decided to go on a guided tour thru the jungle to some waterfalls. Our guide took us hiking along a very well-traveled path, stopping along the way to point out, plants, trees, and birds and animals. It was very informative and we all enjoyed the trip.

After a good long and hot hike we came upon the waterfalls. It was such a beautiful place. We were the only people there and it was truly paradise. We discussed stripping down and going for a nude swim. But Mom thought that the guide would not approve. But since we did have on our bikinis under our shorts, we were able to cool off in the water. After a good swim and a quick picnic lunch, we hiked back down the trail to the rental car and returned back to our cabin.

During dinner that evening we were discussing the tour and how wonderful the waterfall was. Everyone enjoyed the day, we talked about how nice it would have been to spend the day nude at the waterfall. Mom suggested that the trail was very easy to follow, and that we really didn’t need the guide at all. So the next morning we woke up early and drove back to the trail at the park. We took off hiking the trail and in no time had stripped off our clothes. We hiked nude and figured if we encountered any other tours we would worry about it if it happened. But we had the place to ourselves and after a good hot hike found ourselves at the waterfalls.

We spent the entire day swimming naked and enjoying the falls and exploring the trails thru the rainforest. It was almost dark by the time we got back to our beach house, but it was such a fun and adventurous day! The days went by and my sister and I spent our days playing nude in the surf and laying naked in the sun. But all too soon we had to return home. None of us wanted to leave our little piece of paradise. But after the flight home it was nice to get home and relax from our travels.

Spring Has Sprung

· · 3 Comments

Spring has sprung here in our little part of Texas. The grass is growing, the leaves are sprouting on the trees and I was able to lay out nude and get some sun today! This morning was bleak and gloomy with clouds and a chilly morning. But by mid- morning the sun came out and warmed up everything into the mid 60’s (Fahrenheit).

We made a big event out of it. My sister called her best friend to come over and enjoy the sun with us, and I called Kat, Maddie, and Allie to join us for naked lunch on the patio and to work on our all over tans out by the pool. The water in the pool is still way too cool for any of us to jump in. But the sunshine was enough for all of us girls to strip down and enjoy the sunny day. We love tanning naked by the pool. The excuse we used is that we need to get a good base tan so we don’t burn when we start our serious tanning as the weather warms up more.

But to be honest, we all have been catching a day here and there to tan all winter. The good thing about living in the south is that after every cold front, it warms up a bit and if you’re lucky the sun comes out to allow you to sneak in a couple of hours of nude relaxation before you can’t stand the goosebumps any longer.

But today all the girls and my sister and I had a wonderful lunch outside in the sunshine, courtesy of my loving mother whom we just can’t say enough good stuff about! Mom even joined us girls for a little nude time around the pool after lunch. But I must say that if you walked out of the sunshine into the shade, it didn’t take long for the goosebumps to make you wish it was summertime!

I know we shouldn’t have, but none of us bothered to put on sunscreen. We all lounged about planning how we are going to spend our spring break. We are all out of school this coming week and we hope the weather cooperates so we can have more nude outdoor fun. It’s been a chilly and wet winter, and I just want to spend as much time nude and naked outdoors as I possibly can.

So as the afternoon sun was moving across the sky, after a few hours the breeze and the goosebumps forced us back into the house. But we all got a good dose of sun and I am happy to report that all of us young ladies managed to avoid a sunburn. Although our butts and nipples did seem a bit pink, I think it will all darken up and tan without a burn.

Overall we have had a great day hanging out with each other and planning our spring and summer adventures. There is something about spending time with your friends in the nude that brings us all closer together, I just don’t know how to explain it. But I urge all of my readers to please give it a try! Even if you just do it by yourself, strip down and enjoy nature without your clothes. It’s such a relaxing way to spend the day out in nature.

Naked Daydreams

· · 8 Comments

Today I have been having naked daydreams all day. I have turned into an obsessed teenage nudist, all I can think about all day was swimming naked in the warm waters of summertime. Daydreaming of the hot sun on my nude skin, turning my nipples my favorite shade of dark bronze. I even daydreamed about how wonderful it would be to have a sunburn, with tender rosy butt checks. Having my sister peel off patches of dried skin off my sunburned back. I daydreamed of beads of sweat on my forehead as I dove into our crystal clear pool to cool off from the Texas heat. I daydreamed of the smell of coconut tanning oil on my skin. I think I’m getting cabin fever again.

I spent most of my day daydreaming while decorating our Christmas tree. Sipping on hot chocolate and prancing around the house naked digging thru boxes of Christmas ornaments. Every once in a while looking out the window at our dreary cold and rainy day. Its wintertime in Texas. Wet and cold. And today it had me in a funk, wishing for warmer weather. Wishing for sun burnt skin, and beach hair.

I keep one of my father’s old oversize coats and a pair of his oversize hiking boots by the back door. Both are too big for me, but it makes it easy to slip on the boots without having to lace them up. Then putting on the coat so I can walk the dog out in the yard on these cold and wet days. Then we come back inside to another cup of hot chocolate, and continue my daydreams of warmer weather and frolicking naked in the surf with my toes in the warm sand.

I have been working at a clothing store at the mall for a couple of weeks now. I know…kind of ironic for a teenage nudist to be working in a clothing store! The day after Thanksgiving is called “Black Friday”, and I had to show up for work at 3am…it was a mad house. Crazy people everywhere! But even at work, I spend my time folding clothes and daydreaming of hurrying home so I can strip out of my clothes and feel the freedom of my nakedness. Or daydreaming of the good old days when my sister and I were little, and would be naked on the beach building sand castles in the warm sun…yes I have cabin fever again. But the daydreams are getting me thru the winter.

Fall Is For Naked Hiking

· · Leave a comment

Today was a wonderful day!

It was a nice cool fall day here in East Texas. I can tell the season is changing, and it made for a very nice day out by the pool.

This morning I woke up to a hand on top of my face. I removed the hand and determined it was Kats. That’s what I get for rolling over on my back while I slept. In order to get all four of us in my bed together we have to “spoon” on our sides. The two girls on each end get a little freedom to squirm around, but not much.

We all woke each other up and lazily cuddled naked under the sheets. But the smell of bacon finally got us all at the kitchen table for breakfast. All the girls spent the night last night, Kat, Maddie, and Allie. We all slowly walked naked to the kitchen, because we really hadn’t intended to wake up this early. Mom told us over breakfast that Dad was fishing all day and we had the house all to ourselves today. But Mom said Dad had to carefully back out of the driveway this morning when he left. All of my friends eventually got their own cars over the summer, and my Dad says that our front yard looks like a used car lot whenever all the girls visit.

After breakfast we went outside to enjoy the cool morning. We walked across our back pasture to our trail thru the woods and hiked naked down to the creek. Hunting season for deer will be here soon and I don’t know how many more hikes in the woods we will be able to take. I kept a look out for game cameras, since we don’t want to give any hunters a surprise when they check their images. We enjoyed our walk in the woods and spent the rest of the day laying around the pool and working on our tans. The cold fronts will be coming soon and winter will leave us very few days to get some sun.

But the weather was so nice and everyone enjoyed it. All the girls left by dinnertime and it was just Mom and my sister and I at the dinner table. We talked for a good while at the table. During the summer I stopped wearing bras, and I was a bit concerned when school started. But we are all surprised that so far none of the teachers at school has noticed. I am hoping that since my Mom is a teacher, if a fellow teacher notices that I am not wearing a bra they will talk to my mother before sending me to the office for dress code violations. But so far I have had no problems.

Of course I am not trying to attract attention. I tape my nipples or layer my tops so my nipples are not that obvious. But it’s been hot here in Texas and I really don’t like to wear a lot of clothes anyway, so it’s mostly tape until winter comes.

I hope everyone had a good weekend and if you enjoy my Blog Post please subscribe to “Suzie’s goodies” up at the upper right hand corner of the page. I will email you when I post a new story so you will always be the first to know!

A Little Nude Fun At The Lake

· · 16 Comments

Last week our family spent a few days at a friend’s lake house. My father has a coworker who has a cabin up at Lake Sam Rayburn here in East Texas. Dad has gone fishing a few times with him and told us how nice the cabin was. It is lake front property in a secluded cove. The coworker and his wife offered my Dad the use of the cabin for a few days, and he gladly accepted.

We were all excited to see the cabin and spend some family time together. My sister and I wanted to invite some of our friends to join us, but Mom wanted this week to be just us family. I enjoy the company of my friends just about every day, and my sister and I often forget that Dad doesn’t feel comfortable going nude around our friends. Mom suggested that we give him a break and go to the lake without our friends.

When we arrived at the lake house, it didn’t take me long to figure out why Dad liked the place so much. The house was a cute and rustic cabin, but it was the fact that it was so secluded that made me realize it was perfect for our family. The cabin was a few hundred feet from the water’s edge, in a small clearing surrounded by trees. The smell of the pines was the first thing that hit my nose as we got out of the car. The property was tucked into the back of a cove with no neighbors as far as I could see.

We got settled in, and my sister and I took a walk around the property. When we returned to the cabin we found that Dad had pulled a couple of Kayaks from the storage shed. He suggested that we put on our bikinis and scout out the cove before we decide to strip and go nude for the week. He just wanted to make sure no one was camping around the cove and that no one would be able to see us.

So my sister Karen and I changed into out swim suits and paddled around the cove enjoying the beautiful scenery. We paddled out into the main lake and followed the shoreline around to the next cove. There we found a couple of cabins but it appeared that no one was home. We pulled up to one of the cabins and got out of our Kayaks. We hiked up to the cabin and it was indeed empty. Maybe like our friends cabin, the owners only use it on weekends. We hiked thru the woods behind the cabin and followed a trail that lead all the way back to our neighboring cove. We could barely see our cabin thru the trees and realized that we were indeed secluded enough for all of us to get comfortable. So without saying a word, I smiled at my sister and pulled the strings on my bikini top and then slid my bottoms off. It didn’t take Karen long to do the same. We turned around and hiked naked back to our Kayaks and paddled back around to our cove and back to our cabin.

Mom and Dad were inside the kitchen of the cabin when we walked in, and they were already nude and preparing lunch. We told them that we didn’t see anyone on either side of our cove and I announced that unless a boat came into our cove, that I will be naked for the rest of our stay.

We spent the rest of the day nude and fishing off the bank and hiking in the woods around the cabin. That evening after dinner we started a little campfire and roasted marsh mellows and sat naked around the fire. It was a wonderful end to our first day at the lake.

The next morning I awoke to the smell of breakfast and my sister and I joined our parents for breakfast. My sister Karen and I had planned to Kayak around our cove and do some more fishing and swimming. So after breakfast I step out the door of the cabin and let the cool morning breeze blow around my nakedness. For an August morning it felt nice and cool. I walked toward the water’s edge where we had left our Kayaks the night before. I was enjoying the breeze and the smell of the pines and was about half way from the house to the shore when I noticed a bass boat thru the trees floating in the cove with two fisherman. I stopped in my tracks not knowing if the fisherman had seen me. I did as my mother had always taught me, I didn’t try to hide or cover up. Mom always told us that we will never change the public’s view on nudism if we cover and hide in shame as if going nude is somehow an unnatural state to be in. So I just simply turned around and walked back up to the house, casually and proudly strolling along as if I were wearing a pretty summer dress. I walked in and told my sister that we had someone in the cove and would have to wait until they left before we started our day of fishing. The way the trees blocked the house, we could sit on the porch of the cabin and not be seen. So we waited there until the boat left the cove. So I learned a good lesson that morning. Always look out the windows to see if anyone is in the cove before leaving the house!

We spent the rest of the week swimming and fishing nude, and a couple of times we were brave enough to paddle out into the main lake and around to the next cove to explore. We all had a great time and enjoyed our nude time together. Sometimes a boater would interrupt our nudist activities, but for the most part we could spend our time out on the shore or in the water and not be disturbed. Dad enjoyed his nude time with us since he rarely gets to do so at home because it seems our friends are always at home with us. The quite time allowed us to talk and plan for the upcoming school year and have one last naked week together as a family before school started back.

I want to thank everyone for your kind words and support! Don’t forget to sign up for “Suzie’s Goodies” so I can contact you when I have a new post.

My Naked Facebook Rant

· · 6 Comments

Today was another beautiful summer day! My friends spent the day here with me today and we had the house to ourselves. My father was at work and Mom spent all day out shopping, so my friends and I could have the day to ourselves. Before lunch an odd thing happened. We actually put on our bikinis before we went out for a swim. The plan was to take a few photos around the pool so we could put them up on our social media sites, then strip down and enjoy our day laying around nude.

We all took turns taking pictures of each other and we even got one of those disposable water proof cameras to take some underwater shots. We intended to stop taking pictures and strip down to get some sun…but even after we striped off our bikinis there still were plenty of pictures taken. As long as no one else would see them what harm can they do? After all, my parents have thousands of nude pictures of my sister and me as we were growing up.

So we spent the afternoon uploading our bikini pictures to our Facebook and twitter accounts. Which brings up a sore spot with me. I have personal Facebook and twitter accounts that I share with my friends from school. On these accounts I never discuss anything relating to nudism. I also have separate accounts for “nudisuzie” because to be honest, I’m still in the closet with most people I know. I really don’t want my fellow classmates and teachers to know I’m a nudist, because here in the United States…people judge. Being a nudist is still not accepted well here in the Bible belt.

With that being said, I tried to have a separate Facebook account for “nudisuzie” but it didn’t take long for the prudes at Facebook to lock my account and ask me to send a photo I.D. of some sort to identify me. Well a teenage nudist who is trying not to come out of the closet doesn’t want to send a photo I.D. to anyone.

So for now my “nudisuzie” social media reach is limited. Everyone can follow me on twitter, Pinterest, and stumble upon. But I’m sorry to report that Facebook will have to wait until I can figure out a better way.

Grilling by the Pool

· · Leave a comment

This weekend the girls all came over for a sleepover. My sister had her friend over, and with Kat, Maddie, and Allie we had a full house. Saturday evening we were all laying around the pool, and Mom came out to get suggestions for dinner. We were all laying in our lounge chairs wearing our favorite attire…just our sunglasses. We were all laying on our backs facing Mom, and Allie asked Mom to join us for a dip in the pool. Mom smiled and said she might join us after dinner, but for now she wanted to talk about our food options. Dad was going to grill and Mom wanted to know which side dishes to fix. Because of a few well-placed bushes you really can’t see the grill area from the pool, and Dad has grilled out there a few times with us swimming. But the pool area is private enough that no one seemed to mind.

So while we were talking I heard the back door open and Mom looked over her shoulder as Dad walked out to get things ready at the grill. Mom looked at me with a mischievous grin and then called Dad over to us. Then I looked over to see Maddie and Allie roll over on their bellies, and they also each had a grin on their face. Kat and I just stayed as we were, laying on our backs. Dad came walking up to the pool and said, “Hello Ladies”. Mom told him that we all had decided on burgers and seasoned potato wedges with mac and cheese. Dad assured us that he would fix us up with his now famous cheese burgers, and while my parents were chatting it up I couldn’t help but smile as I noticed none of my friends tried to cover up at all. Maddie and Allie were lying there with their beautiful tanned backsides exposed to my parents…exposed to my Father, and they didn’t seem to mind at all. I couldn’t help but think how self-conscience they were about their bodies just a few weeks ago. And it made me happy knowing that they felt comfortable enough to be able to do that with all of us.

As Mom and Dad started to walk away, Mom said that she would let us know when dinner was ready. As she walked past my chair she gave me a thumbs up sign, and I returned the favor. We all just chilled out until dinner was ready. No one said a word about the conversation. Like it was no big deal. Then Mom called out from the back door, and we all got up and started to walk away from the pool. Maddie started wrapping her towel around her and Allie did the same. A little wave of disappointment came over me, but I guess we still made progress today. As we all walked into the back door I just told myself what Mom always says…baby steps.

Baby Steps

· · 3 Comments

The girls spent the day with us again today, and as usual we spent our afternoon hiking naked thru the woods down to the creek. The hot summer air is dead still in the thick trees as we made our way down our now well beaten path. We were all wishing for even the slightest breeze to hit our naked skin to cool us off a bit…but none could be found. So it didn’t take long for the heat to get to us and we stopped long enough for everyone to get a cold drink out of the back pack I had filled for us before we left the house. Kat poured a little bit of the cold water on each of her arms to cool off a bit. Then she poured a little over her beautifully dark tanned breast. Her nipples instantly stood at attention. We all did the same in our attempt to cool off.

We finally made our way down the trail to the creek bank where everyone jumped in to cool off. We spent the afternoon lounging in and out of the cool water, and had a good discussion on how they were enjoying their nude summer with Kat and I. Maddie and Allie have been joining us often, spending the weekdays with us while their parents work, and staying with us for long weekends. As the days have gone by I have noticed how they are now completely at ease to be naked most of the day with us. Whether it be down at the creek, in our pool, or at the beach I have noticed how relaxed they are with their nudity. They are content to be nude around Mom, but they still want to cover up when Dad is around. We talked about their concerns and I explained that a lot of times even kids that grow up in nudist families get somewhat self-conscience about exposing their bodies when they get into their teenage years.

They asked Kat and me why we don’t have any issues with people seeing us nude. I really couldn’t explain the way I feel about it. I guess I am just more self-confident and do not have any body issues…and besides, my father is family and I don’t see what the big deal is. Kat has been going nude with me since we were both little kids. She explained that she feels the same way, and see’s my Dad as family also. There are kids that grow up in nudist homes and then as soon as their bodies start developing, have issues with exposing themselves to family and friends. I have never had that problem, but I can certainly understand my friends concerns about going nude around anyone but our little group.

Mom sent me a text that she was starting dinner, and I realized that we had stayed at the creek longer than we planned. So we hiked our way back to the house, drinking our last bottle of water along the way. So we emerged from the edge of the pine thicket hot, sweaty and thirsty. As we approached the clearing of our back yard we noticed that it was so late that Dad was already home from work, and was cutting the grass on our mower. After our little talk at the creek I thought this would be a good time to see how brave the girls could be. They all realized that with Dad cutting the grass he would be able to see us from across the yard. But we had no towels or clothes to cover up. Kat and I just started walking toward the house. I looked back at Maddie and Allie standing at the edge of the forest. I told them that Dad was too far away to tell who was who, and that with him so far away he wouldn’t see anything anyway. Kat told them that there was no way she was walking all the way to the house and back for a towel. I don’t know if it was my talk at the creek, or the heat and thirst…but they both folded their arms over their boobs and caught up with us and we all casually walked back to the pool area with Dad waving from the mower. When we got to the pool we all showered off and jumped in to cool off. Mom came out of the house to meet us with a pitcher of sweet tea in one hand and a stack of solo cups in the other.

I told her how we all walked to the pool waving at Dad, and she told the girls how proud she was of them. She reassured them that it was not ever a problem here, and to just relax and not ever worry about it. We laid around the pool and swam a bit before dinner. Dad put the mower up and was inside by now. After a while we went into the house to wait for dinner in my room. When walking thru the house, of course Kat and I never worry about covering up. And Maddie and Allie usually have a towel wrapped around them if Dad is home. As we all walked past Dad sitting in his chair in the living room, everyone said hello. But as I turned to go into my hallway I turned back to look at the girls just in time to see Maddie walking through the living room. She didn’t have the towel wrapped around her as usual, she just held it up over her boobs. The towel was draped in front of her covering her front…but her butt was completely exposed. I looked at Mom standing in the kitchen and we both just smiled at each other.

An Observation

· · 3 Comments

Today I was changing channels on the TV and came across a documentary about finding a lost tribe of people in the amazon. And I couldn’t help but think of how these poor people will be changed forever and their culture lost.

Every time they find some lost indigenous tribe of people in the jungle, they find happy, content, loving people with no body issues. They spend their day going about their daily routine naked as the day they were born. No one covers up in shame, no one is offended by the sight of a naked child, no one makes fun of anyone because their butt is too big, or their boobs are too small, they accept each other for who they are and enjoy life.

My sister and I are fortunate to live in a clothing optional home. If we don’t feel like wearing clothes today, no one will make a big deal about it. None of our nudist friends or family have body issues. We are all confident, self-assured individuals. No one has an eating disorder, no one has social anxiety. No one judges how our body looks or makes negative comments.

How wonderful would it be if everyone were raised in a clothing optional home, and everyone had a chance to grow up without shame or body issues? It starts with the parent…how will you raise your child?
