What to do when your daughter doesn't like part of her body- a personal experience.

So both of my older daughters last week at different times while picking out what they were going to wear for school the next day have announced they didn't want to wear a particular outfit because they didn't like their legs.  I don't know where this came from, because for one I love my own legs so they have never heard me complain about mine.  And for two both of them are skinny.  My oldest is a head taller than all the other kids her age and skinny, while my 8 year old is short but very skinny.  I told them both that there is nothing wrong with their legs and their legs are beautiful.  When I asked what they didn't like about them they just giggled and said they didn't know they just didn't like them.  To me this says that they know its a little goofy to feel that way but at the moment that is how they felt.  But then a few weeks later they are wearing those outfits again.  I guess that just goes to show how quickly a young girls self image and opinions can change.
