My side of being a mom ,



No I am not ashamed at all of making sure that my daughter dresses up appropriate to the situation.As mom of both a girl and a boy I cannot be sure where both are hundred percent of my time.And the society I know today is not safe for either boys or girls . It does not matter to the abuser at all ..as they can in today's world be both men and women.



I can and have taught my son to respect women based on their knowledge and brains,but till I am sure every son has been taught that , I'll keep on looking out for my daughter.



Until I can be very sure as to the places they are going to is free of miscreants,abusers or violators of dignity I'll take the utmost care on what they wear.. .



I will be infinitely more careful for my daughter ,as girls are conditioned to not speak up for fear,shame or terror ,or even because she is too young to comprehend what is happening to her .



I would much rather prefer my daughter called conservative than unknown strangers trying to pick her up or cuddle because she is so cute.we have all learnt from all the incidents we ourselves have faced .



And looking pretty ,at the risk of putting my daughter and even my son in danger ,coz he will move hell to protect her ,is not a situation I envision or even want to be in.



Let the world become a more safer place ,I'll make sure to change my outlook of not being overbearing on my girl specifically.



If any mom feels that trying to get her daughter to wear dresses that show off her body is cute.So be it .It does not mean I am judgemental if I comment,it simply means I am making the mom aware that she is ousting her daughter into a very unsafe world .



It is insanely impossible for anyone to keep a check on today's kids specially when the majority of our parenting falls solely on both or one set of parents as there are no elders in the family to give us a respite..being a parent has become a 24*7job now. . And no I am not being judgemental ,you are, if you feel my upbringing of my kids is something to be commented on ..as I donot understand you or your kids dressing sense at all .



If you have taken care of them over the years I'll definitely listen to you ,but my parenting style is my very own responsibility.And I take my responsibilities very seriously
