[quote=Anonymous]I'm a mom of one DD that looks like a ballerina/model, and one who does not. I have to say, that my 15 y.o. ballerina/model type thinks she is not pretty. So I believe that the objective truth, (if there is one) or the collective consensus--whatever---does not matter as much as you think it does. Meaning, whether or not your DD is pretty or not is not the key in dealing with her issue. I think with our culture, girls of all stripes are dealing with the same issue and probably need to be dealt with in a similar way. So what I've done is not really said much about beauty. I really focus on trying (growth mindset...so not achievement, but trying to achieve.) I'd also grab that wonderful book...Untangled. This really helps! [/quote]
