Miley Cyrus Goes Crazy

Whatever happened to Hannah Montana- the sweet and funny disney actress that my daughter and I would tune into on Saturdays?  Is anyone in America concerned about the emotional health of pre-teens and teenagers today?  That's my main concern here.  I know it is old fashioned, but what about modesty?  The Bible encourages Christians to dress with modesty.  Paul wrote to Timothy, saying, "I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God." (2 Timothy 2:9-10)

Simply put, it is not healthy for our kids to present themselves as sex objects in the way they dress or behave.  Sure being attractive and dressing with modesty and beauty is a good thing, but not presenting yourself as an object of sexual desire..  Sadly that is exactly what Miley Cyrus is teaching.  She is teaching that any behavior is acceptable if it gets you attention.  Parents, we need to step in and engage with our kids.  they are getting some seriously wrong messages from media and culture.  So rather than just aksing your teenager not to watch such things, take some time and talk about modesty and image and the dangers of focusing on external beauty especially in this messed up world.   They will be better off and you will be glad you did! Modesty is always beautiful!
