No but if how they dress influences how they are treated by their peers or others then it's my job as a parent to make sure they are not mis-treated. While I can't control the actions of others I can control some of the variables that may lead to mis-treatment. Just like I would not permit my child to go somewhere unsafe alone where they could be harmed, I would not permit them to dress in a fashion that may warrant attention that they are not ready or mature enough to handle.

It's moot for me....I have boys. But let me say this, they will never leave the house with their pants around their thighs and their boxers hanging out.
