[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tell my daughter she is beautiful every day (among other praises). She is beautiful no matter what she looks like. You can tell all your children they are beautiful. You think that, it's true. [/quote] Ugh. I hate this notion that everyone is beautiful. We don't tell our children that everyone is athletic, everyone is good at art, everyone is good at math, or everyone is kind. So why the insistence that everyone is beautiful? [/quote] Because if i suck at baseball, I don't play. If I suck at math, I become an English major. If someone tells me I'm ugly, then what? Hide my face? Don't go out anymore? Because they did tell me that, and I tried hiding for a while and trust me when I say it doesn't work and sets the stage for a pretty awful life unless you can get a handle on the confidence.[/quote]
