[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just don't understand how any of you guys can think your kids are not beautiful.  I look at my kids and I know they are absolutely gorgeous.  They bring a smile to my face every day; how could I find that not beautiful?  I'm sure it's not objective (it's not supposed to be), but I thought everyone felt this way about their kids.[/quote]

Who are these people who think they’re somehow doing their kids a favor by implying or actually stating that they’re not attractive?  I can’t imagine growing up knowing that my own parents didn’t think I was beautiful.  This is a very sad thread.[/quote]

So when you look around at a crowd, all you see are beautiful people? No one looks average? And average people cannot admit that they look average and be proud of it, because it is heresy to our cultural idolatry of beauty? [/quote]

NP. When I look around at a crowd and my child is in the crowd, I pick her out and my heart says she is the most gorgeous one there. My head knows this can’t be true objectively but who cares?[/quote]
