Kid... or French Legionnaire?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's pool and beach season, which means you can get used to seeing members of the French Legion splashing around the kiddie pool for a while. Or perhaps you'll see some hazmat-suited tykers building sand castles?

I don't want to offend anybody here, and I certainly take skin cancer very seriously, applying sunscreen early and often to my boys, but I think it's possible to go overboard, with the long sleeves and draped hats. Sometimes, as my kids cruise the pool in nothing but their sagging trunks, I feel a like a child abuser.
