Is it normal to be locked in a tiny room?

they were, watch the movie again

IN THE SCENE, THEY WERE NAKED. No one is talking about whether they were naked IN REAL LIFE, duh. The movie wants you to believe they are taking a shower, so the question is fair, since the movie was claiming to imitate real life.

If you are kidnapped, yes, dumb@ss.

The question isn't whether it's NORMAL EVERYDAY LIFE, it's whether something like that could happen to a person for real, and the answer is obviously, YES.

No, he asked whether it was normal, in the US, for a mother to take a shower naked with her 5 year old son.
She had been locked up in a single room with him for all his life, so it would be normal for them to take a shower together, but not necessarily normal for any other US parent to do so.
There's nothing normal about the situation in the first place.

In Denmark however, this would be totally ok.

no, it is not typical for a mother and 5 year old to shower together in the U.S.
but of course they lived in horrible captivity and seclusion

reply

Yup, we have a more relaxed and natural attitude towards nudity in Europe. We don't necessarily consider it obscene, it's simply a lack of clothing, nothing more.
