[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure how this translates into parenting advice, but as a woman now in my early 50s, I am very glad that I got the message early on not to rely on my looks. [/quote] Yep, if you have talents and skills, you'll have a whole lot leftover to be proud of once your beauty starts to fade. [/quote] I’m sure your daughter will appreciate hearing, “Don’t worry honey! At least you have skills to fall back on!” :roll: [/quote] DP.. but it's true and something every child needs to learn eventually. [/quote] Of course. But you can say that while at the same time affirming that they’re pretty. If you had a child who wasn’t very bright, would you honestly tell them that? Every child eventually grows up and learns how the rest of the world perceives them, whether they’re incredibly smart, beautiful, and talented, or none of the above. They certainly don’t need to hear that from their parents.[/quote]
