Firstly hi all, I'm a new member so hope this is the right place and doesn't give the wrong first impression or too much of a bad one! My 15 year old DD is your typical teenage girl I imagine, she does well at school and doesn't give us too much trouble beyond usual arguments, but I must admit to being a bit uncomfortable with how she dresses when going to see friends/parties. I'm not prudish I don't think (not with some of what I used to wear) but it makes me worry a bit at her age and how it might make others view her. I won't go on too much but it's come to a head having seen what she intended to wear for a Halloween party next weekend, I don't usually say anything and have bought her clothes I wasn't totally ok with before as I know a lot of her friends and other girls her age wear the same sort of things, but did this time, and she's got upset saying I'm denying her right to wear what she wants and need to get into the modern world! Maybe I'm making too much of it but just wondering what to do, if I let her wear it now I'll feel I'm undermining myself but if I don't she'll maybe feel left out. DH agrees with me on this but says maybe I'm partly responsible for having bought and let her wear other clothes we weren't ok with before. Maybe we're both overreacting? Confusing on a Sunday afternoon!
