[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, just thought I'd update. Unibrow is gone, my niece was really crying over it and my brother had enough and insisted. SIL still thinks its ridiculous and no big deal, thinks my niece will get over it but agreed. He took her to get it waxed this time but I told him about threading for future reference. Thanks for all the advice.[/quote] Sorry but waxing a 6yr old's face is child abuse in my eyes. You basically just told her that SHE needs to change herself to conform and stop teasing. Not dealing with the teasing. Did she not like herself before or only when the teasing started. My guess is the teasing which means it is the teasers who have the issue, not her. Honestly, this is so sad. Hope she doesn't get teased about weight in the future. I see a bulimic in the making. [/quote] Not allowing her access to an easy solution to a problem that is upsetting her is child abuse in my eyes.[/quote] It was only upsetting her because she was getting teased otherwise she would have started complaining about it at age 2-3yrs old. This is really sad.[/quote] My niece was so distressed that she kept trying to get rid of it herself and was starting to call herself ugly and was crying about it. Sure awesome, lets try to get young kids to stop being bullies but my brother wanted to help end his daughters distress now. Also my SIL just thought that her being teased was no big deal, that it would help her develop a thick skin and that my niece should "get over it" (her words) so it wasn't like she was taking a stand against bullies and social justice for unibrows. Not child abuse, not even close. How offensive to say waxing a tiny bit of hair is akin to actual child abuse.[/quote]
