“All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if they aren’t.”
- Marilyn Monroe
While I appreciate the sentiment (making children feel good is a good idea) can we PLEASE try to change the prevailing cultural norms that say the BEST thing a little girl (or any female) can be is physically attractive? Can’t we tell them they’re smart, well-spoken, or kind?
