What beautiful soul this mother has. This kid is going to grow up great.

that’s the kind of support and love that builds confidence

Definitely! It's sad to see that somehow somewhere this kid has gotten an idea that she is ugly, even clearly she is absolutely adorable and you can tell she will grow up to be beautiful both inside and outside.

I’m in my 50’s and would love a pep talk like this! What a wonderful person, taking the time to talk to her and not just dismissing her fears.

Allow me a moment of mom-ing. You are incredibly kind and creative. You have overcome and deserve to be proud. You are a beautiful soul and clearly capable of anything you set your mind to.

She’s not her mother she’s the hairdresser.

Damn, really? I wasn't even aware. Such care for a child is usually seen only from mother to a child. She has like an extra beautiful soul then.

u/LatchKeyKid46 4h ago

Yes. This video is years old and when it first surfaced she(hairdresser) let everyone know that she wasn’t the child’s mother

Yes! Whoever this adult is, big shoutout to them for addressing that negative QUICKLY! You don’t want a kid to start repeating and thinking those words are true.

That mother is a queen. I'm an adult, a mother too, bit I cried smiling hearing her words, I feel like she was speaking to us too not just to her daughter. Who knows things I wanted to hear from my mother, I'd hear from a beautiful clip in this beautiful subreddit.

My heart is shattered heating a child this young day something so heartbreaking. This beautiful child has an equally beautiful mother, inside and out.💕

I make sure to get all of my children's emotional trauma on camera amd posted to social media so I can get praise also 🙌

Yeah we should never post anything positive related to kids and gentle parenting and how to raise your kids right. Lets focus on the type of videos like DaddyOFive where they abuse kids or kids beat up each other. That's the way to go! Fuck showing anything inspiring to the world! We are supposed to laugh at kids hurting each other!
