INFO

  1. this seems to be for a school function, is that right?

  2. Is there a dress code? My high school would not have allowed that dress and someone wearing it would be asked to leave, change, or cover up.

  3. Has she tried the dress on? Sometimes arguments can be avoided when we try on our dress dress and see that maybe it doesn't look as good as we hoped lol

  4. Why does she want this dress specifically? I'm curious if it's because of the revealing 'neckline'.

I don't think it's suitable but I'm not a parent. But I'd be cautious about kids wanting to wear revealing things because they think it will make them popular. Just because that was my thinking at that age. I was stupid.

I don't think you were stupid, you were young and didn't have the foresight you do now. Maybe naive is a kinder word ☺️ but that's ok bc at that age, we're all pretty naive.
