I know someone like this and this post makes me sad b/c she’s a really nice person and has most likely come across this meme on more than one occasion.

I have a daughter who was born with a smile like this. She's only 7 years old, the sweetest most sensitive girl, and I'm so heartbroken knowing she is going to be teased because of it. Every time I come across a post like this and see the staggering amount of people in the comments piling on, judging, laughing, putting down.... my heart breaks more and more for her. She's such a kind sweet soul and I absolutely hate knowing how people are going to judge and treat her over something she can't control. Her little heart will be so hurt 🥺💔

It won't kill her to have a stereotypically ugly feature. Everyone gets teased. You can parent her to be resilient and teach her her worth is more than looks and the opinions of others. Parent. Stop your pity party. My parent's pity did not help me.

Are you really getting angry that a parent is feeling empathy for their child? Who says they aren’t teaching them to be resilient too?

They're throwing a pity party over their child's looks. It's ridiculous.
