Disapproval,Relationships With Children.

A Christian person whom is a good person who loves God,had a child who has moved away from home and wears clothings that this person does not approve of,said recently that since my child wears clothing I do not approve,I didn't want to be seen in public with my child for fear that people would think that I was condoning that type of clothing,but the christian person said they had to get over that.

I'm not trying to sound harsh,but why are folks more concerned about people thinking they are letting down to the point,they distance themselves from their grown children ?

My children might grow up and do things,that I don't approve of,but I never want to distance myself from them,for fear someone would think I was compromising.
Please understand I'm not belittling standards,that people have,but do Pentecostals sometimes succumb to a religious spirit,that we distance ourselves for those whom we need to build bridges to ?

Please understand the spirit of this post,as it is not meant to sound harsh or belittling in anyway.
