Subject: Children don't need to be forced!

https://www.quora.com/When-you-were-a-child-did-your-parents-ever-force-you-to-go-barefoot

As the answers to this survey seem to confirm: There are children who were told to put on shoes when they would prefer to go barefoot, but nobody has been forced to go barefoot against their will. It's natural for kids to prefer having their feet free, and best and least stressful for parents to leave the choice to their kids, perhaps with a warning if they consider it too cold, too hot or too dangerous.

I've heard from parents "It's a struggle to put shoes on my child", I wonder, why struggle? Just let them experience how it is to live barefoot and if they need protection they will probably tell.
