3 Phrases You Shouldn't Say to Girls: Note to Parents

24.10.2024 14:00

If you want your daughter to not have complexes and other problems, you need to weigh your lines before voicing them.

Sometimes the most banal comment can negatively affect self-esteem.

What are three phrases to avoid?

"The main thing is that you marry well."

After such a phrase, the girl begins to think that the only value in life is to find a man. Parents, on the contrary, must convince their daughter that she is the "main character" of her own life.

Of course, it is important to meet a worthy man. But this does not mean that for the sake of each representative of the stronger sex you need to forget about yourself.

"You don't fit into your clothes anymore."

Comments about weight can hurt even adults. Children begin to have serious problems with self-esteem. Adults need to show real miracles of tact.

The issue of excess weight should be raised gently and without judgment.

"It doesn't suit you"

Instead of such categorical statements, it is better to choose something that actually suits your daughter. Otherwise, she may start to feel embarrassed about her appearance.

And such complexes may well remain for life.
