Skankoween

Have you heard someone use the above word? If not, you have probably seen what it means. Kids who go out “trick or treating” are dressing in provocative clothing. Scary has been replaced with sexy in the costumes of people, especially the young. Modest has been swapped out for mini. Fun has been turned into flirty and foxy. This practice has gotten to the point where various media outlets are now paying attention to it.

If you are a parent–and especially a Christian parent–let Christ and the Bible be your directive for proper clothing choice 365 years a day. There is no “night off” for modesty and that includes tomorrow (such is especially true in the summer months). At work or play live as a Christian example and teach your children to do the same. We cannot control what the world does, but we can be responsible for ourselves and our families
