[quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine for OP to refer to the girls as "cute" and "less attractive." I think it's important for kids to know there will always be people cuter than they are, more athletic, smarter....I don't think you should tell your kid they aren't attractive, but encouraging self worth outside of beauty is important, as is being realistic about your looks so you don't embarrass yourself be setting your expectations "too high" based on societal norms. There are many times when people date outside of what society would, on average, deem within normal range, but being realistic is important to happiness. My best friend in high school spent all her time obsessing about some guy who was never going to give her the time of day. [/quote]
