We let my now 12 year old start wearing midkinis/cropped tankinis at around 8 when she asked when she could start wearing suits that "stick out the belly". I find nothing about these suits that sexualize a young girl. If there are some creepy teens getting turned on by seeing 2 inches of my child's stomach, then that's THEIR problem and their PARENTS' issue, not MY or MY CHILD'S issue.
You do not pull a one piece suit off to go to the bathroom, you just pull the gusset all the way to the side. I cant believe this isn’t common knowledge for all women and their daughters
This is just incredibly unsanitary. You probably are the type of person who doesn't wash her hands after she pees.
Nothing unsanitary

My kid never wore them when she was a baby. Around 10 she started wearing two pieces, she’s 11 now.

I have no issue with kids in two pieces but I would not put them in bikinis. Bikinis are for women with breasts - that is why the shape is designed to cover breasts.
No issue though with a sporty two piece or a tankini or something that isn't an itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polk a dot bikini.
For outdoors, they need coverage for sun anyways and board shorts and rash guard are the way to go.
I am not into dressing children in adult clothes. Not a fan of heels or adult type styles on children.

I don't think it matters anymore. Some of the one piece swimsuits are more revealing. I would just get her a more modest two piece, like a tankini or rashguard. They are easier to get off and on

My 6-heard old DD has always worn 2-pieces. She started with a rash guard and bottoms and now if she feels like it she will wear a modest top instead of the rash guard. Why is this such a contentious thread?

-OP
No, I didn’t.
+1. Actually covering non-existent breasts in a young child is what is sexualizing.
Thank you! I completely agree!I am from a different country and girls don’t usually wear a bikini top until they have something to cover. My own 9 year old does not wear a top when we are there.
I was recently visiting an indigenous tribe in Central America and little boys and girls did not wear a top. Girls had a little skirt on and boys something a little different. This is not sexualizing little girls.
That said, in the US unfortunately girls have to wear something on top (at the public pools at least) and I’d rather them wear a small top that does not stay wet for long.

Tankini and bikini bottoms. Wear a bikini when you are on a private yacht with a swimming pool.

When she's responsible enough to reapply sunscreen on her mid section.

Never for bikinis. They look ridiculous on 97% of adults and there is zero reason for them on a child.
Tankinis, any age. Easier to use the bathroom in them also.
