[quote=Anonymous]No. Absolutely not. If a kid is unattractive, their peers will let them know. They will know. They don't need to hear it from their parents at all. They need their parents to build them up and praise them for the things that are good about them. They need their parents to make sure they have clothes and hair that are appropriate for them and flattering and that they like to wear. My kid would be the most self confident "ugly kid" that you ever met. One of my friends in high school was amazingly plain. She also had an amazing, charming personality and had plenty of friends and plenty of dates. She is a very successful physical therapist now. Married with children. The French describe women like her as ‘Jolie Laide.' It means "pretty/ugly" but it's more about appreciating unique beauty. [/quote]
