[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what the cool teen girls do. Obsess over clothes, makeup, and how they look. It's developmentally normal. [/quote] Cool? Try insecure.[/quote] Maybe, maybe not. For some kids this is truly an interest. My kid is really into all this stuff and is not insecure in the least. I can see how it might be an issue for some, but would be careful to paint with broad brush. There are definitely kids she knows with more access to more money for these types things, but she understands that different families have different resources and that she has to make choices about how she wants to use hers. We talk about these things. It’s part of basic parenting [/quote]
