    Some people are just good parents.

    In what way is bringing children up to be repressed and uncomfortable with their bodies good parenting?

    It's not like random strangers are likely to rub their naked genitals on your children! :rotfl:

    I would say that anywhere you go in the med will have topless people on beaches. If you want to avoid it then go somewhere cold or go to a child friendly hotel/complex, although you may still find some of the parents sunbathing topless around the pool.

    curious how old are your kids ?
    if 2-5 i doubt they would understand anyway
    if 5-15 they probably already seen someone naked i assume you have a tv / they might have seen newspapers

    Just becasue you've seen someone naked in a paper, it doesn't mean that you want to see it when you're on holiday.

    If you're paying to go somewhere and you find nakedness nasty (and lets face it, most naked people do look pretty nasty with their sagginess, hairiness and general lack of clothing) then pay your money and make your choice.

    The OP was only asking on some ideas of what choice there was.

    Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."

    Ryanair to Beziers and then to Cap D'agde is the place to avoid.

    Exactly.

    People can be quick to poke fun someone else's perceived conservative preferences. I believe that it is good parenting to choose not to expose children to public nudity but hey, that's just my opinion. Poke fun if you will.
