[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 5’4 , and  my 17 year old daughter is 5’11- 6’1 depending on who’s measuring her . She used to love being tall until she started getting brainwashed by insecure teens , and social media . 
My daughter watches harmful content of tall woman on social media, and internalizes it . You know how negativity is usually popular on social platforms on TikTok . 
All  the prom couples usually have huge height differences, and my daughter feels left out . She holds resentment against her height , and feels like it limits her sadly  . She tells me a short guy makes her uncomfortable , and highlights her height even more . 
My daughter is also into girlish kawaii styles , and feels like her height clashes with her outfits . I told her she can wear anything , and shouldn’t be defined by her height . 
How can I make my daughter see the beauty in her height ? [/quote]

I am 6 1. My daughter was 6 feet by age 13 and is now 6 2 at 17. We impressed upon her early how awesome it is to be tall. That helped counteract brainwashing.
I am not sure what the solution is besides pointing out how models are tall when you see them at this point.

But I would say: she can't really wear the cute fashions, whoever said she could wear whatever she wants (I mean she CAN and power to her, but it's unlikely to look good). I've always said we can look elegant and regal and sophistocated and classic, but not cute. And petite women have a hard time pulling that off.[/quote]
