[quote=Anonymous]This is a hard question. Some posters are fairly adamant about their opinions (surprise, surprise) but I find the possible answers to be a bit more gray. Obviously, your goal is to support your DD as much as possible. You don't want to damage her body image and you also don't want her to get hurt by, let's be honest, potentially ferocious middle school girls. High school is more the age when you own yourself. Middle school is rather more the time to scurry through it without the least amount of damage. 5th graders might not assign a negative value to hairiness. You probably have a year or so to think it over. But, when 6th grade/7th grade starts to hit, that may change. What is least harmful? Pulling DD aside and saying, hey, I love you and you're awesome and here's a pro tip to duck some shallow jerks, might be a good call.[/quote]
