My girlfriend and I were talking about raising daughters and how it's so natural/programmed in us to see a little girl and compliment her hair or clothes. It made me really think about what I say when I meet a little girl and how important it is to me that Rocky's self-esteem be built upon her brain, not her looks.
After reading
this article, I've made it a point to focus on a little girl's interests in school, books, sports, music, or art rather than telling her how cute she looks.
