DEAR DEIDRE: MUM has always been very comfortable with her body and happily walks around our home naked.
Now she wants to pose nude for work. I’m horrified.

I’m an 18-year-old boy and my mum is 43.
Me and my younger sister are used to it, although at the age of eight, I did ask her to cover up when my friends were around.
She has decided she wants to work as a life model, where she would sit naked for artists to sketch.
I will be mortified if she works at my college where I’m studying videography.
The art students always have a right laugh when they have been sketching a nude model.
The whole college knows when they are doing life drawing lessons.
I’m worried that some of my friends who do art may end up seeing Mum completely naked. I would never live it down.
I feel bad because she thinks she’s finally found the right job for her but I really need to tell her she can’t.
DEIDRE SAYS: Up and down the country, other teens will feel your pain.
It is really positive that your mum is comfortable with being naked.
Her positive body image will have provided both you and your sister with a good role model.
Why not have a chat with your mum?
I’m sure that she would be happy to avoid working at any venues where your friends might be.
