the little girl is what matters most. Who cares what her mothers job involves..this little girl belongs in church, and anyone who things otherwise, is simply wrong

Actually, "her mother's job" matters more than what school she is in. It is the current mentality in our culture that the school, be it private or public, is the place where children learn values and behavior in preparation for adult life, but the reality is children will emulate their parents far more than they will any teacher. It's human nature. Perhaps this religious school understands all their good teaching would be for naught if the girl has a slut for a mother, and maybe trying to use tough love to get this woman on a brighter path was in the best interest of the little girl. And if she chooses to continue to strip, there are plenty of other private schools that will accept her child in our free society. But this denominational school should not be condemned for having standards that both protect and elevate ALL their students and parents.

Amen. The best thing the school could do to help this child was confront the mother on her "profession."
