This is NOT why most young people go to camp. It IS to meet and flirt with members of the opposite sex. Why do you think that the typical camp meeting can be so easily confused with a Hollywood red carpet premier (as far as cloths go)?

How sad for you and your children, I would be glad to PM you the location of some conservative camps, where the Word of God is still taught!

It has nothing to do with the Word of God or how it is taught. It is all about the birds and the bees. In conservative circles especially! When young people (and single adults) are continually isolated from others outside the four walls of THEIR church, camp meetings become all the more important for hormone driven activities, or the promise of such.

I think it's best to teach kids proper behavior and let them intermingle. Keeping them apart causes more problems than it helps, I think.

For some of the girls it is all about fashion.

And sadly when they grow up and go to general conference it still is.
