    I feel this every time my daughter gets dressed and then changes her mind on her outfit for school. We do our best to enforce a positive body image in her but she worries too much about what others say.

      It’s hard to not care what others say when you’re forced into a pressure pot with them for hours at a time with no escape.

      And the old advice of “just ignore them” does not work for all people. Sweet if it works for you, advice giver.

      And it’s worse yet if the teachers don’t care… or partake in it.
