[QUOTE="DDD, post: 502931, member: 35"] Certainly worth some thought. I do see a cultural change from generation to generation. I find it abhorent that little girls rarely just were jeans and a tee and actually play. Although I am not close with my youngest gd I have heard her saying to peers "oh, I love your outfit" and "where did you get those awesome shoes"...at age six, seven etc. Her Mom uses the word "pretty" alot. In fact she really is a pretty little girl but I think it is emphasized too much. My easy child#1 was absolutely darling as a little girl. Then she had a growth spurt, had to wear glasses and ended up having acne too. She is and was a caring, intelligent and kind person. Thank heavens she was not surrounded by "pretty" as the standard. by the way, by college she had grown into herself so to speak and is an attractive woman...who remained caring, intelligent and kind. I'm not a fanatic on the subject but I think superficiality is more common in 2012. Interesting post. DDD [/QUOTE]
