AIBU to put concealer on my 5yr old?

[amysmum18]

DD who is 5 managed to walk smack bang into a metal railing the other day and is now sporting a massive bruise in the middle of her forehead. It's school photo day on Tuesday and she's due to be getting a single picture and one with her younger brother.

I'm assuming that this bruise will be at the really obvious purple / yellowish stage by Tuesday, so am trying to decide between using a bit of concealer to try and disguise it / make it look less obvious in the pictures or whether to leave her with the massive shiner on her forehead to give us all something to chuckle about in years to come when she's looking back at her school photos (or I'm showing them all off to her future boyfriends!)

Dd had chicken pox blotches for her pictures in creche (she was no longer infectious before anyone stresses about it) and my mum asked if I'd get them Photoshopped out. I didn't, mainly so I'll remember she had chicken pox when she double checks with me in 20 years.

my dc had a birthmark shopped out. I was furious.

That's a bloody disgrace, hoddtastic .

yes, i know it is, it's one of those red marks (spider gram or something?) and when the photo came we were like 'hmmm- this is different somehow' and we realised they'd photoshopped the kid.

needless to say we weren't the only parents who went in because the kids had been given tans/had marks shopped out :)
