My husband and I may very well have been to open with our kids as they grew up. But in the over all picture I think they grew up very well and liberal thinking.
We pretty much let the kids do as they pleased with in reason of safety as they grew up. We were also very loose on a dress code. Nudity in our house was common place. Denny and I often had sex with the bedroom open. If we had an audience no one ever said a word about it. We did of course give the speech about sex to both girls as they came nearer to that age when they talked boys and sex.
In our state the legal age for drinking has been raise to twenty-one. But when Sherri and Michelle came to us and asked if they could have a graduation party with beer and booze. We had a problem with that. They begged very well and there easy going father came up with an idea.
Our cabin is across the state line and over there the legal age is eighteen. So we told the girls we would take all the kids that gave us a parental permission slip in our motor home to the cabin let them have the party and we would drive them all home the next day.
A week before graduation we had sixteen slips giving us permission to serve beer and booze to the kids at our cabin and we were to be the chaperones. Two mothers asked if they could accompany us in there own cars. We happily agreed.
I called the first mother and introduced myself. "HI "I said "I am Karen Wheeler, Sherri and Michelle mothers." She said her name was Linda and the mother of Jerry Stone." She said her husband was away for a few weeks and she really wanted to get out of the house. So I welcomed her to come along.
The second was the Grandmother guardian of a boy named Randy Cole. She said she was not so sure about these kids drinking alcoholic beverages but her grandson wanted to real bad (Because of the girls) so she wanted to go along to make sure things did not get out of hand. I welcomed her also.
Sherri and Michelle our twin daughter were all excited the day of the big party. Denny had parked the motor home out front so as the kids arrived we pilled them in the coach. The last one arrived at two o'clock and the two followers were close behind. It was a very noisy sixty miles but even with all the screaming and fooling around we made it in two hours.
Our cabin has four bedrooms and lots of room on the floor for sleeping bags. The cabin is set back under tall trees a good hundred feet from the lake. Our boat house is next to the dock. We let the kids use it as a changing room for the ones that wanted to go swimming. The booze would not be brought out until after the evening meal.
Neither Denny nor I had met either of our adult guests until today and he for one was surprised and pleased in both cases. Jerry's mother was slim and tall like me with a skimpy bikini under a see though smock. She made no bones about her suggestive attire and if Denny wanted to look he was welcome. I laughed and told him to be my guest if I could watch. He said he world see what he could do to accommodate me.
Randy Grandmother, Lacy turned out to be a very young Grandmother and a very pretty one. She was not over fifty and she was also a well build lady with a quick smile. She on the other hand wore jeans and loose blouse. Even at that I could see she had a nice figure. So I was sure Denny noticed as well.
But with so many young girls around I don't see how he kept from rupturing him self. Some of the bikinis were no more than an after thought.
