Like a Queen: Ms Hall says that she is naked around her children because she doesn't want them to have unrealistic expectations of women's bodies
The former reality show contestant and mother said that she is naked around her children because she wants them to see realistic bodies and not just those portrayed in the media.
'I don't want my boys expectations of women to resemble those that they see in magazines or TV nor do I want my girls expectations of themselves to,' Ms Hall explained.
The mother of three and artist has gained more than 488,000 followers on Facebook for her honest and funny writing on motherhood, sisterhood and being a woman in Australia today.

In her most recent post she also wrote that she wants her followers- who she calls Queens- to not feel bad about their bodies because they aren't perfect.
'I believe that with the help of Queens loving themselves the next generations definition of beauty will be radically different and no longer will we idolise the unrealistic airbrushed idea of perfection that causes so much self doubt and depression,' she said.
Ms Hall ended the post by wishing her followers a Happy International Women's Day. The blogger has previously shared pictures of her 'flawed' body and encouraged other women to do the same.

'We need change': The mother ended her post by wishing her followers a happy International Women's Day
Whilst most of the response to the blogger's post has been positive, there have been some women who disagreed with the mother's pro-nudity stance.
One commenter said that she had 'made peace' with her body but wouldn't be naked around her children because she believed in modesty.
Most others agreed with Ms Hall, with one woman saying she believes that being naked around her son has meant he appreciates her body- tummy and all
My boys walk in on me once in awhile and I try not to make a big deal out of it. I remind them they need to knock and wait for a response and ask if they can go out and try it. Then I tell them to wait (until I'm dressed).
I don't strut around in the buff, but I also don't freak out if they see me nekkid either.

I walk around naked, sometimes, but I don't sit around naked. Eeeeew, keep the naked butts off my furniture!
I have leather furniture. The thought of sitting naked on it sends shivers up my spine. I don't walk around naked except between the bathroom & my closet. I do walk around in thin cotton night gowns when I'm hot which is 90% of the time.

IMHO what you described IS making a big deal of it. Not making a big deal of it would be continuing the conversation as if nothing was different.
We are "naked people" in my DD's words. I don't lounge around naked, but if I happen to be naked and I remember I left something in the bathroom down the hall, I will go and get it without covering up. The kids do the same occasionally and so does DH. It's not a big deal in our house. If we have people staying with us, we don't walk around naked.

I don't think the nudity is a big deal, but I think walking into someone's bedroom without knocking certainly is something to correct them on.

I'm trying to teach them to knock first. I do the same if they walked in on my clothed. There are exceptions, like if one is sick and needs to tell me something. The other morning #1 walked in when I was in the shower and talked to me through the glass. I answered back and carried on the conversation until I saw his eyes wander then he started to laugh. Then I told him to get out, and we both laughed.
There is nothing wrong with developing a healthy point of view of the human body.
And there is nothing wrong with modesty.
If your naked a the child walks in, reminding them to knock is good.
No need making a big deal of being naked.
But I don't get just being naked for the sake of being naked.
I use to sleep nude.
But I didn't vacuum nude.
And if I'm having a hot flash, a cold shower and fan are my best friend.
But I'm not going to strip down in the living room.
