[quote=Anonymous]Kids' elementary school was celebrating Earth Day today, and they were encouraged to wear blue and green. My 2nd grade daughter was talking about drawing an earth on her cheek with some face paint that we have, which I thought would be fine. She came down this morning with her entire face covered in blue and green face paint. It was intended to be the earth but really just looked like she smeared blue and green face paint all over her face. It really looked ridiculous, so I was concerned that a. kids would tease her (and she is particularly sensitive and emotional), and b. the paint would end up all over her hands and clothes by the end of the day (she also goes to aftercare). So I basically made her take it off. I feel guilty because she was really into it and thought is was the best idea, and I was honest about my concerns. Was I wrong?[/quote]
