Hello,
My DD is too obsessed with the Mirror.
Always on the mirror, even in school always take permission to use the toilet but you know what ' it is an opportunity to use the mirror.
Class teacher reported yesterday that she is always go owing to the toilet & I know what she is doing there .
I have ended up removing her wardrobe mirror door, I remove most of the mirrors in the house but the only one left is the
One in my bathroom but she still finds her way to look at it all time. Pls help me with some suggestions.

Not sure I have an answer but I feel your pain. My daughter is 14 and is obsessed with her appearance but I think it stems from insecurities. She is very pretty but has to always look her best. I think for now as we have a lot of other stress in the family (my husband has cancer) I will ignore it. I think sometimes the less fuss made the better. I have got my daughter to join more clubs etc so she has less time to scrutinise her appearance and so far this helping as she is more confident.
