Oh to be young and free
I've been hanging on to this one for a while because I wasn't sure about it, but I've decided I like it.
Could anyone find this offensive?

No. Why should be offensive? My God, is just a child.
In Europe, you'll see naked kids on the beach, is like natural. They don't know (up to some age) about man and women, they think mummy and daddy.
Anyway, is so fine.
To me looks like a Greek statue

Not offensive to me at all, but I too was born without clothes.
I like this shot - I think it's the stance/pose and the hair. I rarely like backside shots and not always crazy about tilting, but both work here for me. Well done!

As they have stated, its not offensive and a good shot. Definitely something to smile about.

Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

Put a set of wings on that child and get a little bow and arrow and voila...you have yourself a cherub!

That's quite a cute picture and I don't see it offensive (but I am european...-hmmm- on which beach in the world babies are not allowed to be so "free"?).
Only my fingers are twitching to move the photo straight(?) - why do you choose this angle?

Thanks for all the comments.
That is how the photo was shot, with his feet in the very bottom left. It is the only shot I have. If I recall, this was shot late one day when the "Little Cherub" followed me outside(to shoot a sunset) after his bath.
