I think it much better for a mother just to tell her young daughter that we don't dress like that at our house rather than making them resposible for other people's problems. This also avoids a condemning attitude towards others who don't dress the same which is especially unnecesary for a young girls to learn before they have the ability to make finer distinctions.
I found this to be very disturbing also, Newman ... it's why I drew attention to the testimony ...

We teach modesty the way you do also .... My daughter, now 10, knows that we don't dress immodestly because it displeases God ... and when she was younger we told her we just don't do it that way ....
