But not too beautiful. My niece is too beautiful and I told her... btw you are so beautiful that nice guys are afraid to ask you out and a$$holes will.

She is a junior in college now and unfortunately this has proved to be true. I told her she needs to pick and stop waiting to be picked.


Very beautiful people have to work harder at being approachable than average people do. People tend to mistake their shyness with "pride" or "arrogance".

My kids are short, cute Asians, which means they won’t get anything out of their looks as adults except that age-ism will start later

I think my kids are good looking. However, I am not too concerned about looks because most people whom I have met can get to "average" in looks with some effort. I don't think anyone has ever been held back in life for being "average" looking.

This. I think my 8yo is reasonably cute and I love the way she looks, but she's not stunning/gorgeous, and I'm glad for that. She'll have to develop her personality, intellect and other attributes.

I don’t care, but their lives will be infinitely easier if they are conventionally attractive.

It's funny when DD was a baby I thought she was so cute and now she is 8 and is really cute. I look back at her baby pictures and she was a really fugly baby....lmao
But to answer your question, No I dont care how she looks, I care how she is inside.

This is how I feel, too. My sons are also conventionally good looking and I will ensure they know how to care for themselves to remain so for a long time.

So, I thought I'd ask here. Do you care about what your kids look like? Is it important that they be beautiful, extremely good looking, or good looking at all? I'm not talking about how well dressed they are or how well groomed they are. I'm talking about the actual looks they were born with.



I wouldn’t deem it “important” as there is nothing I can do about it at this point but yes, I would like them to be beautiful.

Yes, I was worried and I'm glad she's beautiful. Worry the next daughter won't be as beautiful and will compare herself all their lives.
