How do you raise teenagers, especially girls, to understand the importance of modesty when everything around them teaches them otherwise? I had a site visitor email me for help and I was able to offer some, but feel I am lacking in this area as my own daughter is only seven and I haven't yet had any problems with this principle.

There are some great resources both in and out of the LDS Church to help us teach about modesty, but how can you help the youth to really accept and embrace this important yet often difficult standard? Some of the resources I've found online include Jenmagazine.com, an online magazine run by a young Latter-day Saint woman that has some good articles on how we can be modest AND fashionable. I especially liked the article, "No, Really - It's a Good Thing!"

Another great resource is the Gospel Principles section for modesty at LDS.org, including the For the Strength of Youth pamphlet that teaches about appropriate dress and appearance. (Note: You can get a free copy of this pamphlet from your local ward/stake or online from the LDS Distribution Center. Do a search for item number 36550000 and they'll ship it to you for free.)

But what else is there to help parents who struggle with teaching modesty to their children? Please share your ideas, resources, thoughts, and experiences with us in the comments, we really need your help!
