[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Turning down the heat doesn't work - we have a wall of south facing windows and even in winter it gets to be in the mid 70s from the sunlight. We have no temperature set above 68 anywhere. Usually 66 max, including in our cold cold basement.

The girls aren't being told to go put on a shirt. They this far haven't seemed to wish to wander shirtless. Also, I'd rather my daughters see the scandalous nakedness of bare chested boys in their own home, realize it is not a big deal, and not be embarrassed when they run across bare chested boys in the "wild" (a/k/a, outside of our home).

Cool so long as you have the same view for your daughters. They should allowed to be topless if they so choose and if they get a little older it should be fine for them to go about in their sports bras or whatever. They should be comfotable and you don't want your sons to be scandalized by breasts.

Personally, I don't think your husband's request is unreasonable he's actually teaching them to be gentleman, but it's clear you have the attitude of my kids my rules and boys trump girls so go on and do you, OP.[/quote]
