Ross

I believe the answer is:

prudence

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'girl' is the first definition.

'good sense' is the second definition.
'prudence' can be an answer for 'sense' (I have seen 'Common sense ' mean 'prudence' so perhaps 'sense' could also mean 'prudence'). I'm not certain of the 'good' bit.

'shows' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for prudence that I've seen before include "Caution or shrewdness" , "good management" , "Discretion, caution" , "Care and thought for the future" , "showing caution" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
