Say what you will about Jenny McCarthy, but her sixth Playboy cover proves this mom has still got it. Got sex appeal that is. Sense, on the other hand? Well let's just look at what Jenny thinks of her son getting a look-see at his naked mama.
McCarthy says she has no problem with 10-year-old son Evan one day finding her various Playboy poses. Nudity, she says, isn't such a big deal, because you can find stuff that is so much worse on the Internet. True enough, but generally you don't find your own mother, naked, on the Internet.
And more to the point: neither do your friends!
Before she pooh poohs the critics, McCarthy might want to take a trip through your average high school and eavesdrop on the teenage boys ribbing one another. She will soon learn that talking about one another's moms is standard fodder for this set. Making jokes about sex and a guy's mom is sure to get him pretty steamed.
Now, she might want to think some more about the activities of teenage boys when they are not around their friends. When they are alone ... in their bedrooms ... with their tube socks. What are they reading? Ding. Ding. Ding! Playboy! And if Evan's pals are picking up one of Jenny's, it gives a whole new meaning to "what I did to your Mom last night," doesn't it?
Jenny McCarthy may not be worried about her son seeing her naked in a magazine. I get it. I don't want my kid freaked out by the concept of nudity. And I have a funny feeling that Evan won't even want to look ... would you want to see your mom nekkid? Me neither! Or my dad either (OK, going to go shower to wash THAT image out of my brain forever).
But Jenny needs to be realistic about the choices she's made and what they mean for her son. Other people are looking at her naked, and those other people are going to come into contact with her kid. Pretending that he should be cool with it isn't being a good, supportive mom.

What -- if anything -- can Jenny McCarthy do to protect Evan from the inevitable fallout over his mom's naked body being open for other people to ogle?

She's an idiot. That's why. She's not thinking about her son or she wouldn't keep doing this. She's got a HUGE ego that needs stroking constantly.
Plus, The kid has been raised with this, he's not going to suddenly get ashamed of it.
And even if for some crazy reason, he wakes up tomorrow, ashamed of his mother's career, she can remind him that his food, shelter, and clothing come from her career.
What, her & her son should be ashamed of being rich, and famous thanks to her? I think not.
The European attitude towards nudity is much less uptight. European families often see each other in the nude, for them its no big deal and has nothing to do with sex. A German coworker of mine, in her late 30s, tells us she played in the nude as a kid well past her 10th birthday, seen both her parents nude countless of times. She's one of the most well-adjusted persons I know - way better than me thats for sure and I never saw my parents nude. Even today, she says she insists letting her three kids play around the house nude if they want to, excepting when visitors come over.
Heck, my guy friends used to tell me all the time how hot my mom is and what not. It was annoying, but the4mutts is right, no one made fun of me for it. If anything, my guy friends all wanted to hang out at my house more than any of our girl friends houses :) His friends will all probably have huge crushes on her if they don't already.
Maybe I think like an American BECAUSE I AM an American! If you want to live like they do in Europe, don't let the door hit ya.....
Jeesh....my son was embarrassed because I wore clogs to the mall. Imagine if I'd done this. Once a mom, your kids feelings and well being should come first. She's as dumb as a box of rocks. I apologize to all the rocks out there who will see this!
