Mom, are short shorts and a tight tank top to revealing for a young girl?

I was at the grocery store today and walking in seen a mom and her 2 kids. I'm guessing the daughter was 15-16. She had a super tight and super short pair of shorts on and a super tight tank top on.

Question for the moms out there. Is there a point you say to her that is a little to reveling to be wearing out in public? Or do you just let her find out who she is and let her make her own choices.

As a 16 year-old girl I really wish some parents would just tell their kids to put clothes on because I'd much rather go through my day without seeing some chicks ass. When I was 15 I went through the dressing very revealing stage most girls go through it because they suddenly have a woman's body and they think the only reason they will get a boyfriend if because they look "hot". Personally I would rather cut off an arm then dress like the girl you described but If Idid my mother would tell me to put some clothes on because I'd look like a cheap prostitute.

I went through a stage similar to this at around 15-16, and I also remember my parents being quite disapproving of it and there being a lot of tension in our house. - I'm talking short skirts and minidresses, tight tank tops.. pretty revealing stuff but I didn't think of it as slutty at all. - Bear in mind that it's probably not such a big deal here in australia as the age of consent is 16 rather than 18, which I think is much more appropriate.

What would slutty be too you? Not really understanding what the age of consent has to do with it, kinda see where you are going with it though.

Well, I agree about the age of consent. Jailin guys who can't resist these Lolitas is ridiculous! It wrekcs so many guys' lives here in the US.

But I wouldn't let my daughter dress like that at that age.

When I was 15 I loved all the attention I got from the stuff I wore. It was kinda a phase I went though. I remember wearing a super short skirt that was way to small for me and a tight tank top with a red bra. I loved the looks I got then, but now don't think I would do something as daring as that out in public. So maybe that's why she was doing.

I like wearing short shorts and a tight tank top as a guy as they show off my muscular build. why should I have to hide my muscles that I put so much work into making bigger and more cut and defined?

[martyfellow]

I'm not a mom, but my daughter wouldn't be allowed to do that.

I bet she's one of the many who ask on Gag, "Why are old men staring at me.?"

[Cailleach]

lol.

[Howling]

I think she did cover up, I tried not looking and just looked away. so I bet your right.

I never went through that stage. But when I was sixteen, my mother allowed me to have complete control over what I wore and what I did to my body. Even though she didn't completely agree with what I did i.e. pierce the f*** out of my face etc, she supported me and allowed me to explore myself and my style.

I really appreciated that, and I will do the same for my son or daughter if I had one. But of course, there is a certain line they can't cross.
