Now, I’m not the most prude person out there, but this
weekend, as we’re lying out in the sun, at a public pool, I saw something I
couldn’t believe. There were families enjoying the weekend, hanging by the
pool, mom and dads, lots of kids and people in general. What disturbed me was the child who looked to
be 5 or 6 yrs old (girl) whose mom removed her bikini top and who spent the
entire day walking around with no top on. I can see doing this with a toddler,
say 2 yrs, but certainly not a child as
old as 5 or 6.
It’s not just about weirdos, though they are out there. I feel there’s a
need to teach your daughters that this is not acceptable once they are old
enough to understand the concept.
This mom made sure there were towels for the child, she
diligently put sunscreen on her and we even had our sunglasses…but somehow, no
top was fine!?! Do some people need help
understanding appropriate?
To add another dimension:
Does it matter if they were clearly German and may have different cultural
ideas?
I clearly don’t agree with this but how do you feel about it? Up to what age do you feel topless is OK with
your daughters?
