I empathize with you. Some of our biggest disagreements with our kids came over clothing. My personal frustration—leggings. Now, I know that women wear them modestly with long sweaters, and that’s okay. But I realize fashion is always a personal choice. And I hope that our choices will be biblically based. Dawn Wilson writes for Crosswalk.com and encourages us to ask1: • “Does my clothing illustrate my surrender to the Lord”? • “Have I focused on my heart, or only my wardrobe?” • Are my clothes “consistent with transformed thinking”? • “Am I practicing modesty”? • “Do I dress with dignity and strength?” “Yes” to these questions can help avoid conflict. 1“7 Things the Bible Says about Your Clothes” by Dawn Wilson, Crosswalk.com
