We had a family of teen girls invade our chapel for two years. While here, they all dressed immodestly: short skirts, tight clothes, lots of makeup, high heels, lots of jewelry. The young men fell all over them. It was sickening.
One day their youngest daughter asked my pre teen daughter why she won't talk to her. My daughter's reply: " because you don't dress modestly."
The mother of the immodest girls came over to me, fuming. She insisted it wasnt true. I told her to look around, and that it WAS true.
The families eldest daughter was married and came to mass with her husband. My best friend would ask me after mass: "did you see the nightgown she wore to mass today?" Terrible scandalous.
The saddest part about it all is that her daughters married all the eligible young men in the chapel. Very sad that the parents of those young men did not advise otherwise...
I completely understand not getting in someone's face when they are new, but after a few months they should get the picture. If not, someone should request that the priest address the family.
I am 100% opposed to a woman approaching a family. We had a woman at our chapel who appointed herself such a person. It was bad... always turned a blind eye to her own daughter's, but was on every one else's case.
No, only the priest should comment.
