Modesty–a word that sounds like a throw back to another time.<\/p>\n

But not every young person is shunning the idea of modesty despite the celebrity trend to bare all.<\/p>\n

In fact, a friend sent me a link to a short video (about 9 minutes) of a young woman who has not bought the lie that taking off your clothes means power for women. When women are scantily dressed, they become nothing more than sexual objects to men. And she quotes brain science to prove her point. I could not agree more.<\/p>\n

So, I am featuring this short FB video from Jessica Rey who not only powerfully presents her message but also took action to make a difference. Wait until you see how she responded and makes modesty fashionable again.<\/p>\n

Moms of teens, we need more Jessica’s out there. Jessica, thanks for taking your message public and creating what you did. \u00a0CLICK ON THE PICTURE TO WATCH.<\/p>\n
