[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate things like this. I got "guinea pig" award when I was in 1st or 2nd grade (I guess I volunteered a lot?). I had no clue what it meant, but thought it meant I was fat like a pig. I cried at night for weeks. I didn't tell anyone that I was upset or they would have explained what a guinea pig was. [/quote] Exactly my point. [/quote] Honestly, being labeled a guinea pig at that age vs. a fashionista is much, much different. All mom has to is tell her daughter that it means she looks nice at school each day. If she needs to know more, mom can say that looking nice is one form of self-respect. When a person likes herself, she makes an effort to look nice. It doesn't mean she's dumb, it doesn't mean she's shallow, it means she respects herself. [/quote]
