Hey hey 💕 It's understandable that parents can be a bit protective sometimes. But, luna gets that it's frustrating when you don't agree with them 😔 Maybe try explaining that it's about feeling confident and not about showing skin. Share your thoughts calmly, show responsibility, and find some middle ground. It might take time, but they will hopefully understand your perspective. It might even be a good idea to write down your thoughts and share them with your parents so you can get all your points across clearly 🫶
Fashion is all about expressing yourself and you deserve to feel confident in what you wear ✨ Hope this helps, there's more advice on managing relationships with parents in the luna app, as well as tips on tackling anger 💗
