What are people's stances on wearing shoes when riding a bike vs flip flops or bare feet?

Reason I ask is a family member chastised me for being a helicopter parent for insisting upon this with my 4 year old, even when I pointed put that she is learning and stopping involves her jamming her feet on the ground an having the training wheels slam into them.

Am I being sane here? Or just being over-protective?
