To talk to your daughter about revealing clothes and modesty, start by telling her that she's allowed to express her own style although the way that she dresses makes you uncomfortable as a parent.
And start by having a calm and non confrontational conversation with your daughter and ask her about her clothing choices and what they mean to her and express your concerns and share your feelings about why you believe that her clothing choices may be inappropriate.
Talk to your daughter about modesty and make sure that she understands the importance of modesty.
When it comes to modesty, the modesty rules often encompasses guidelines for respectful and dignified dress and behavior and often emphasizes covering of the body and avoiding any excessive exposure of skin or intimate areas.
The rules of modesty can also vary across religions and cultures although often it includes avoiding revealing clothing such as short skirts, tight or sheer fabrics and low cut tops along with maintaining appropriate behavior and language.
Modest clothing should cover the shoulders, chest, stomach and knees and not reveal any intimate areas.
If your daughter is of teen age you can often let her dress how she wants although it also depends on her age and whether or not she's dressing in clothes that are not appropriate for an occasion, the weather etc.
If your daughter is a teen then it's less of a concern that she dresses in more revealing clothing than it would be if she were a pre teen or child.
The same is true with weather appropriate clothes or clothes for school.
If your daughter is younger then you have to ensure she dresses appropriately for school or for the weather but when she's a teen or pre teen then you can mostly let her dress how she wants.
Parents should let kids dress how they want as long as the clothing is appropriate for the occasion or weather.
Although parents should let their kids dress how they want to dress the parents should also set some reasonable guidelines and restrictions on the clothing choices that the kids should wear.
For example a kid who is a girl should not dress in a sexy way for school and should be appropriately dressed.
Or for example a kid who's a girl should not wear a bikini or revealing clothes in public or school and should be dressed in appropriate clothes that cover the girl up properly.
And when kids dress they should be dressed in clothes that are warm for winter and cool for summer.
Usually kids that are above 4 years old should be able to dress as they want and should be able to reasonably choose clothing that is appropriate although some kids may still need guidance on appropriate clothing to wear.
Allowing your child or kid to dress themselves is an important developmental milestone.
Even for toddlers and young children allowing your toddler to pick out clothing and dressing themselves can help them to stay on track with their peers and allow them to learn new things such as decision making or solving problems.
Pre teens that are allowed to choose their own clothing and way they dress also have a stronger urge to find their own style in middle school.
Just keep it reasonable when allowing your child or teen to dress how they want and you and they will be fine.
