As far as you know, do your teens (particularly boys) still wear some type of clothing to bed? Or is sleeping completely naked the norm by then? I recently pressed our 16-yo son about why I haven’t seen the new pajamas he got for Christmas in the laundry yet, and he confessed that he’s slept in the nude since he was 12! So, because he’s been too embarrassed to voluntarily clue me in, I’ve wasted money on sleepwear that’s never been worn all these years! Wondering if this is something I should have automatically assumed, or if it’s just an odd preference unique to him  .

I think it's pretty common. I know that my teen sons (14 and 16 years old) sleep in the nude and have done so for quite some times.

I think this was copied verbatim from somewhere else online, as I remember reading it a few years ago. In any case, yes, I didn’t think teen boys slept any other way. Our 14yo and 19yo both have since at least puberty.
