[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 503492, member: 1722"] I agree that being pretty has no business being the be all and end all of a human being. But... being intelligent shouldn't be the only desired trait. Or dependability. Or social ability. Or athleticism. Or creative talent. Or empathy. Or faith. Or community service. Or nice handwriting. Or thriftiness. You get the idea. All of these things are traits; simply a distinguishing characteristic. We are all born with traits and talents. They make us unique from one another. To ignore a trait or suppress a trait in a child is a disservice to that child... its far better to guide the child to favorably develop these traits so that the child grow into caring, responsible adults rather than feel that a very real part of them is unnecessary or unworthy of acknowledgement.
