The mother is right but then again this is Puritan America where nudity is seen as nothing but sexual. My wifes friend is French and she sometimes sends us photos of her family at the beach and yes her young daughter is topless. It is no big deal to us but of course in todays PC America we could be charged with having kiddie porn.
It is pretty sad.
Still the other posters are right that there are some sick people out there so the 6 year old should probably cover up.
They could get her one of those new burkinis.
They are different in France. It is not sad. Thank goodness men wear baggy board shorts and not speedos in America.
We don't have to be France. When America was great women and girls wore one piece suits and we did not have so many pedophiles at the pool. Time to get back there again.
A child predator doesn't single children out because of how they're dressed. It's about opportunity. Sex abusers have access to their victims in some way.
A nut case sees the little girl-- and the fantasy starts -- HELL NO - I'm telling you what I know- KEEP your kids safe! since the internet allowed some much free porn from overseas- many men have lost it - they get crazy and then act on it-

And you really believe the French men are oblivious to top less women at the beach right?
If women really want men not to consider breasts as sexual parts of the body then by all means, let them be the first to start.
"I couldn't believe it, so I wanted to test it, to be quite honest."
"My concern for my daughter in my situation is, I don’t want her to be forced to identify as girly too early,”
Borough spokesman Daniel Bussières to CBC that bathing suits are required for anyone going to the pool and that includes tops for women. However, Bussières added that the lifeguard who approached Felkai about her little girl may have been “overzealous” in following the rules.
About what? ... the danger of girls "identifying as girly"?
