Posing the question on the Quora website, the anonymous mother was faced with an avalanche of backlash.

While some posters called the practice of sleeping naked with her teenage son ‘f***ed up’ and having ‘over-tones of incest’, many others warned it could be seen as child abuse by authorities.

‘If your son were to casually mention to someone (friend, teacher, relative) that you and he share a bed and that you also are naked this person could potentially cause a LOT of legal issues for you,’ posted one person. ‘You could possibly be arrested for child indecency and put into prison and be forced to register as a sex offender. ‘

Another added: ‘Sleeping NAKED with your pre-teen or teenage son is inappropriate in our society.’
