My daughter has been struggling lately at school and seems to be a bit more emotional than usual. On the way to school this morning she anounced that in her opinion she was ugly! To me she is perfectly normal with blue eyes and shoulder length blonde hair, I think that there may be an element of bullying going on.
What do you think I should to nip this lack of self confidence in the bud?
Is this the start of something along the lines of pubity or just girls being mean?
Do I need to make her feel special, any ideas?
Thanks for any advice.
