[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate the short shorts, crop tops, and other revealing clothing that my 8th grader likes to wear, but it’s not a hill I’m willing to die on. She understands revealing clothing can attract unwanted sexual attention, but she has not yet experienced any leering or harassment, and she just wants to “look cute” like all her friends. She will learn her own lesson if and when there’s a lesson to learn, I guess. She knows I disapprove, but I don’t forbid these items entirely because I know that feeling stylish and attractive are important for a teenage girl’s confidence, and I want her to feel good about her appearance, even if that means occasionally drawing the negative attention or judgment of adults.[/quote] This is the best post yet. Balanced and sane, and allowing some leeway to grow up and learn lessons. :thumbup: [/quote]
