To be totally honest, judging from the articles I've read on this camp, I don't see anything immoral or dangerous about it. So far, everything I've read about it sounds like the people who run the camp are being very responsible in ensuring the childrens safety and quotes from the children that I've read sound like they don't associate nudity with sex. Their lifestyle is taking the curiosity out of nudity that most children that age have and they likely won't be as tempted by to fool around as they get older just out of curiosity because they know what is underneath the clothing and it's nothing new to them. I really think that if the man complaining so loudly about it isn't willing to visit the camp and learn first hand how it is run and how the children behave then he has no right to condemn the place because he's ignorant on the whole matter. He is the one who has the perverted ideas on it, not the children or parents apparently. If anyone has an immoral attitude about it, it's him and his perverted thoughts. I'd be willing to bet the boys there aren't hiding playboys under their beds and the girls are probably less promiscuous that the average kids their age. I'd love to see some statistics on teen pregnancy and sexual activity comparing children of naturists verses other children who's parents are not. It would be interesting to see how the percentages compare.

...and they likely won't be as tempted by to fool around as they get older just out of curiosity because they know what is underneath the clothing and it's nothing new to them

They may not fool around out of "curiousity" but I don't think that this is any kind of a safeguard against fooling around. Many young adult nudists go to the burning man festival in the desert and that is not a sex free /temperance event.

If the kids choose the nudist lifestyle, that is one thing, but there is the risk of being forced into it. Society has laws that say at what age teens can consent to sexual activity. Parents are even at risk of arrest for taking nude photos of their own kids.

The courts are vague on prosecution and perhaps some standards need to be established.
