I guess when they decide they want DDs to notice them they will learn about grooming. Shave, pluck those nasty unibrows, etc. (why don’t parents teach their kids to pluck unibrows) it’s even worse when adults don’t groom.


I mentor kids and working and lower-middle class kids will tell me they don't know how to shave, nobody ever taught them.

Why are you not teaching your daughter not to be a mean girl?

Well, she doesn't say anything to them about it.


Just talks nasty about them behind their backs. That makes it okay.

And you just egg it on. Can’t bring yourself to say Honey try not to be so judgmental?
Yup, Queen bee mom raising a mean girl in her foot steps.

I do. She does feel bad about being grossed out. She doesn't talk about it to friends

Huh. At my child's school, it's the girls who are obsessed with the boys. Not the other way around - at ALL.

This. OP, you need to tell her that she's being rude and judgemental.

The screechy voices, oily complexion, and early facial hair is not doing anything for anyone. Basic hygiene is not the first thing on their minds and they have to be specifically told to shower daily and use deodorant or they will never do it. One of my boys is a little more fastidious than the other but he is still learning these things that come so naturally to most girls. For a boy who acts like a daily shower is the biggest inconvenience of his life, I'm going to hold off on expecting him to shave regularly. Maybe next year (or the year after).


They don't come "naturally" to girls either.

I flippin hate social media for these impressionable kids.

Are you sure you aren't the one who has been brainwashed?
