This is so perfect. My daughter was talking about some pictures in a magazine just the other day. She said she wanted to look like that. I was trying to explain to her that the person she saw in the picture probably didn't really look like that. I will have to show her this clip. Perfect timing. She's only 6 yrs old but she's already concious of the signals that she's getting from the media and her friends. I am not very hung up on my looks, in fact I rarely use makeup or criticise my body out loud. Most I say is that I need to eat more vegetables or taking better care of my face to prevent the acne I'm prone to. But not really critical of things I cannot change by treating my body right. Thanks for sharing that video. It's a good springboard for me to continue talking to my daughter about this issue.
