"The real problem here is why we assume that a Native American upbringing must be worse than a middle-class white one."
But the Hijab and the rosary are used in religious ceremonies. The bindi actually isn't. The bindi is used to replace sandalwood paste and vermillion which is used to mark the foreheads of people who have done a puja. No one gives out bindis in temples.
