Re: purity rings
I wouldn't stop my daughter from wearing one. However, I don't want my children to think they're doing anything or "extra-special" by remaining pure. This is just their "reasonable service", living holy for the sake of living holy. Someone told me they didn't like the idea of a "purity ring" because they don't like people drawing attention to themselves because they abstain from unGodly activities. I understand that it is mostly a symbol and reminder to oneself though. So I'd give it a pass if she wanted to wear it. I don't like a lot of jewelry, I wear a wedding band and a watch, and that's it. My daughters will be expected to wear a very little amount of jewelry.
