Is it wrong to let your toddler girl run around the yard topless?

Asked by keobooks (14322points) August 21st, 2012

I figure that she doesn’t have anything to show. She’s physically identical to a toddler boy. I think it’s OK to let her run around topless when it’s hot. One of my neighbors acts a bit aghast that I’d do so.

One of her kids told me that someone was going to take my daughter away if I continued to let her go topless in the yard. I don’t know if she meant that a pedophile was going to abduct her or that a social worker was going to come and take her away for endangerment or neglect. It’s obvious that my neighbors have been talking around their kids about their distaste for having a half naked baby girl running in the yard.

So. Am I wrong to let her run around topless? I didn’t wear tops until I was about 4 on a regular basis, but I lived on a farm out in the middle of nowhere. I could be out of date and out of place in my beliefs.
