I have visited this website often but have never posted and I am not looking for an answer, but just want to post my frustration. My wife and I are empty nesters and have become increasing at home and in the backyard naturalist – as well as enjoying some time at Gunnison. We have lived in our neighborhood in NJ for 20 years. I mow our lawn every Friday night during the growing season. The lady across the street is a widow and watches her (now 4 in number) grand-daughters ever Friday night and all day Saturday. Every since the first one was born and old enough to toddle she played in her grandmother’s front yard – in the summer wearing only underpants. As grand-daughters 2, 3, and 4 came along – all four have done this. In my day we would have called them “Tom boys” – these girls loves to push and pull and chase and then collapse on the grass. The oldest in now about 12 and the youngest I would say is 6. They still wear only their underwear and are usually topless as they play. I have seen them for years and wave as I mow the lawn. Recently a new neighbor moved in and must have “alerted” the police to this for the police showed up two weeks ago and the girls have not been seen outside since. This is very rare.

My wife and I always thought the girls were just very comfortable and it certainly didn’t bother us. My wife will probably talk to the grandmother and see if the girls would want to come over to our pool from time to time. If the grandmother came it could be CO and I could get lost for the duration.

Like I said I don’t expect any response, but just wanted to share my frustration.

PS – for your informal survey we both sleep nude (learned to do this as empty nesters and love it) and yes, I often hold myself

PSS – as I say we are backyard nudist/naturalist and my cock get very dark (almost black) as my body tans

Joe and Claire,
Welcome to the Forum! Glad you did write, and yes, you will get a response! We can't help it, it's in our nature!

I can understand your frustration. Its a shame that new neighbors can change the mood of a neighborhood. Maybe you need to get to know your new neighbors as well as the lady across the street. Get them together and let them both understand that you appreciate children being children.

I had a situation (but as an adult) where my neighbors did not have any (or much) issues with me being nude. But a new neighbor came and I started having problems. Eventually we moved.

Congratulations on your new lifestyle. Hope you can move it towards visiting a Family Friendly resort (See AANR site for more information.

BTW, it is called Naturism, not naturalism. The difference can be confusing to some people, but naturalism is more of outdoor study and appreciation of nature, usually associated with people who study scientifically. But naturism is a lifestyle that includes outdoor activities in nature. confused yet?

So AANR likes to say Nude Recreation to avoid the confusion.

Again, welcome and hope you come back and let us know how the neighbors are doing. And better yet, add another member here to help others grow as well.
