Totally agree with John about need of context.
It scares me is how people are willing to ignore the context given by
the photographer, and replace it with one that resides in their warped
minds.
I think it is a good photo. I like the way it conveys the child's
exhaustion, and the way it conveys the father's support. Literally by
just leaning to the wall in a strenuous posture, which probably is for
the benefit of the photographer, but still.
Don't know if personal appeal is the right word, but the shot makes me
feel sorry for both child and father.

Nothing bad about this photo at all, - it is not disgusting, nor it is sexual
in any way. It needs
an explanation as to context, is all.
It does not appeal to me personally.

I am not sure this photo is great, but it is definitely not disgusting.
Some people are simply paranoid. Literally (literally) :
"Is this picture disgusting or beautiful?"
