[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would address it head on with your daughters - both daughters- and point out the issues with commenters annoyingly and shallowly commenting about looks so much. Talk about your values, and that should not include appearances. Also I would decide the message you want both daughters to hear and then say that every time someone comments to them. Such as, "thanks and I'm sure you mean well, but in our family we value ___ more than outer appearances." [/quote] I agree you have to say something directly to both of them (maybe separately to give Twin 2 an opportunity to cry, vent, etc without her sister). Just ignoring or papering it over won't help. If you don't counter the comments, they will assume you agree with them and don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. [/quote]
