I change my little ones too, right out there in the grass and stare right back at people when they scowl at the nakedness. It's crazy. We also , regularly, have naked girls running around in our very open, public, corner lot backyard. And neighbors who are extremely bothered by it...so sad for them.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04340949435638137938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3333156371815923125.post-40819328531134929762010-11-10T17:27:37.060-06:002010-11-10T17:27:37.060-06:00I also think we here in America have a dysfunction...I also think we here in America have a dysfunctional view about swimsuits. When we took a short trip to the Mediterranean a few years ago, we witnessed a group of children, both boys and girls, maybe 5-10 years old, completely change their clothes right on the beach. There was no staring, no awkwardness. I envied them and the attitude they were able to have about their nakedness. It's natural! Everyone has a body!Daisynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3333156371815923125.post-11832486390139815652010-07-15T08:05:31.600-05:002010-07-15T08:05:31.600-05:00I don't think anyone would blink at a 2 year o...I don't think anyone would blink at a 2 year old in only swimsuit bottoms at the pool. It's no different than a baby walking around in just a diaper, and plenty of girl babies do that. Also--what saggy belly, are you kidding me?! I saw you in that bikini last week! ;)Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02048943082445040917noreply@blogger.com
