Anyone else grow up with a parent that had no shame? My mom notoriously wore just a shirt around the house. Anyone have similar parents? How’d you feel?

She normalized by being naked a lot and being ok with my sister and I being naked. We weren’t nudist or anything but if I didn’t want to wear panties at home my mom just acted like that was normal. Same for my sister except she had to wear pull ups because she struggled with potty training.

As far as boundaries? I just didn’t have any. My mom wouldn’t let me have any privacy. My body wasn’t my body, it was my mothers. She literally used to check my panties before going to school to make sure I wasn’t wearing a thong, this went on until I left for college. Even at school she would request pictures of to verify I wasn’t being a “slut”.

At home was the same. My mom would get drunk and force my sister and I to cuddle her. Stuff like that.
