[quote=Anonymous]My parents taught me that we all had gifts that went way beyond looks. Brains, talent, etc. As I've watched so many of my friends over the years struggling with body image issues, eating disorders, etc., it's been a blessing that we didn't have to worry about that because we know it's not all about LOOKS or THINNESS. Also, we all have good work ethics because they made us work for our allowances and spending money starting at an early age. Last, my dad taught me to overcome shyness with strangers by "flexing out" of my shyness to feel comfortable in situations that scared me. (kind of "fake it till you make it.") I've since taught that lesson to others and will teach my own daughter.[/quote]
