Little Girl

I once chanced upon this little girl walking in front of the house one late summer day. She was wearing an undershirt and an underwear plus a pair of pink flip flops. I immediately took two photos of her and this was one of them (the other photo she was standing up so I didn’t choose to upload because I thought it was a little indecent for a little girl) :

I want to know your thoughts about this photo. What can you say about this?

My thoughts:

Little girls should not be allowed to roam around clad like that. Granting it was summer time and it is really hot and humid here in the Philippines, still, wearing something like this should be done within the confines of the home.

Little girls like that should not be allowed to go out alone, unaccompanied.

I do not like to “judge” parents who do not look after their children especially when they are out on the streets but for me, this is not the proper way to look after young children who are vulnerable to the dangers that await them.

I shudder to think about preschoolers being kidnapped, raped, mutilated and killed. When i see young children roaming the streets, I just hope that they would be safe from these dangers.
