Actually, to me it seems extreme when there's a constant talking about tznius in some homes and communities.
I think we can instill tznius just as well without constantly talking about it.

Constantly is preaching. That's the opposite of never. I was talking about when the opportunity comes up and somehow it's strange to me that the opportunity should NEVER come up in all the years of raising daughters. Seems like the subject of tznius is moot. I don't do anything close to preaching about it but I'm not afraid to teach them right from wrong when it's an appropriate opportunity . Btw just this Shabbos I had to remind my almost 12 year old not to rip her nails. A quick reminder. She knows it's not allowed but kids are kids and it's okay to forget. And okay to remind. To me Shabbos, middos, and tznius are all part of raising kids. And chinuch includes modeling, talking, and answering questions.

Why are we only talking about the 2 extremes? It’s not never or too much. Most people choose the middle ground of appropriate talking at the right times in a non preachy and extreme way.

This.
