My neighbor lady allows her kids to run through the spinkler naked.

It has been really hot here and people are trying to stay cool.  My 4 year old daughter looks next door at the kids playing and runs over to the neighbors while they are running through the sprinkler.   All three of her kids are naked.  No big deal, the two younger kids and 3 and 4, except one of the boys must be closer to 9 or 10 and it looks like he is developing. 

I told my daughter she could not play with them and I think the mom was offended and my daughter was crying.  I do not need to give her an anatomy lesson.  Would you let her play?

We would go in the pool at grandmas naked but that stopped around 2 years old and there were no neighbors to see. I think this is inappropriate given the circumstance.

That is just way to old to be running around naked, he needs to put on some shorts or something. I would never allow my kids to run around naked at any age.

have you heard of this great new invention called sunscreen? and fyi most cho-mos are family, adults & children, or are family friends, or your childrens' teachers... also as long as YOU are supervising your kids, naked or not, no harm will come to your kids that you didnt allow.


perverts are everywhere, but we forget that our presence and attention are all thats needed to detour the average peder-ass. its the crazies that dont care & will attack any one like james holmes, and the people who will kidnap/harm your whole family because they had a whim.


allowing your kids to play & have fun is great, but to not allow them to do things because there could be some one watching will not do anything to keep them safe. did you know that cho-mos will be tempted & driven to think inappropriate thoughts, and actions just because your kids fit what they like. did you ever think that form fitting skin hugging bathing suits are more erotic than just flat out being naked? 

Quoting Pinky5511:

Oh. My. God! Naked outside? Never. Just purely on the possiblity of a pervert near by, this is irresponsible. My little boy loves to be naked so we have naked time INSIDE when we are ALONE. (also you shouldnt let them run naked outside, can you imagine how a sunburnt tushie would feel?)

And 9 years old? That's like a 3rd grader. Gross that mom should feel not only judged but embarrassed.

My kids are 3 & 4 and they must have clothes on at all times. I wouldn't let them play either with someone who didn't

yes, who cares really this used to be pretty normal for kids to do back in the day. People today are freaking prudes.

I'd say no
I could understand if it was a fenced in backyard or if they were all young and same sex.
