[quote=Anonymous]My 14 year old son went through a massive growth spurt, and the vertical growth gave him horizontal stretch marks across his back, just under his shoulder blades to hip, all the way across. They are red and pink and shiny. He was horrified. I researched a bit and found they’ll fade some, but he’ll have the marks forever. He is self conscious of course, and he is asked about them every time he changes, his shirt rides up, or he swims. After answering his good friends honestly about what they are he has now gone the story route - generally his story is that he was kidnapped by pirates and whipped. He still looks at them sometimes and will ask if they’ll get better, but he is coming to terms with it. I have a facial scar that bothered me tremendously when I was a tween. My mom bought me makeup for it - I rarely used it but it helped to know I could when I wanted to.[/quote]
