[quote=Anonymous]I think your overreaction and the fact that you posted a question about a 12 year old girl's clothing in "elementary school-aged kids" says that you need a wake up call that your child is no longer a little kid. Allow strapless tops, don't allow strapless tops, it's a judgment call, whatever. But realize you basically have a teenager. Not because she wore a strapless top - but because she's 12! Starting 7th grade I presume? Have you talked to her about dating and sex? What about alcohol and drugs? Depression and suicide? Does she know she can come to you with tough questions? You're missing the forest for the trees, and your kid is about to walk into a very big, dark forest. This next year is probably your last chance to hand her a flashlight and make sure she knows how to use it - stop freaking out about the tiny sapling in front of you. [/quote]
