    I have to say that though my OH is over 21 and fond of a pint you could leave him blind drunk in a hot tub for a year and he wouldn't turn into a !!!!!phile. I think statistically that's true for the overwhelmingly vast majority of men. So why assume that any of these other six men are thinking or doing anything inappropriate?

    Who took the photo? The mum?

  • Sounds like the mum is about, so she is not alone with 6 men in a hot tub.

    The chaps have probably just jumped in cracked open a few beers and little girl wants to join daddy and his friends. Has a paddle then gets out later on.

    It all sounds harmless to me

    Is the gender of those consuming alcohol the reason you feel this is inappropriate?

    Many hot tubs opperate at a temp which wouldnt be appropriate for a child of that age, regardless of the inappropriateness of her company
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    I think yes the gender but also the fact they looked drunk and were still drinking. i could understand if it was the mothers brother in there or the girls dad, but not random 6 males

    Personally, I would agree it would be inappropriate for a child of that age to be in such an environment around those who were drunk purely because there is a danger of drowning or injury.

    I do, however, disagree that the gender of those involved is in itself one of the issues.

    And there's me thinking that the only reason it's inappropriate is because there's no-one sober watching out for the child in water.

    It's only a game
