I whole-heartedly agree. As amother I am constantly finding myself telling my son how proud I am of him when he does a good job and that i love him. I actually call him handsome as a nickname wich his father hates, but my point is that you instill these kind of things into your children. I can remeber the first day thgat my son just came up to me and told me "I love you" for no reason and not because i said it first.
I know i'm taliking about a boy and this topic is for girls, but I think what I am saying is universal. Besides I also think we must teach our males to respect our women if we want them to feel better about themselves.
We must tell our children and the youth aorund us how important they are and teach them to strive for eveything that is within there reach and if they can't reach it now then keep stretching because it's on the way.
There might not be alot we can do to changfe this genaration of women, but I'll be damned if we sit back and teach the next generation anything but that they are the future kings and queens
