Our Natural State

Au Natural, our first birthday suits soon obscured by zip-up rompers and baby boots Baby’s not embarrassed by her appearance insecure parents run interference Next up, movement-control baby must not dance to rock-‘n-roll ‘Grown-ups’ crush baby’s curiosity ‘No-ing’ all instincts exploratory... Forever unchain inquisitive wonts ~ Viva la au natural renaissance Entry in 'Our Natural State' contest Sponsor: Unseeking Seeker Date: Jan. 14, 2025 Gershon Wolf

So, do you mean that we should all be in 'birthday suits'.... just joking.... :) Yes, Unnecessary restrictions shouldn't be imposed on children. Let them be as they are. You rarely enter a contest. All the best, dear Gershon.
