Like the word 'artist', it has become meaningless. They don't like definitions that don't incorporate everybody as equal.

So are you saying its liberals that mostly say every child is beautiful?

If my kid was busted and wanted to be a model, I'd still never tell them they're ugly though, that's mean spirited. I'd just kind of push it off and not take them to any modeling things and let them forget about it. Also not every model is good looking, I can't remember her name but she's a tall dark black lady who's almost bald and has an ugly face and I remember she was on all the magazine covers in the 90s.
Funny thing ~ when you get to know a good person, you begin to care more about that than what they actually look like. After a while, you no longer think they are ugly because you enjoy spending time with them.

Ever heard don't judge a book by it's cover; beauty is only skin deep; beauty is in the eye of the beholder, etc etc etc.?

Beauty truly IS in the eye of the beholder. What you judge to be ugly, others may not. Most parents truly love their children and are not going to see them as unattractive simply because they love them. They love their soul; who they truly are ~ as such, it's almost impossible to see your own children as 'ugly'.

Then there's the old ~ you gotta work with what you got. IF, by chance, you had a child who did not meet the gold standard of 'beauty' (whatever that is) ~ you would simply encourage them to play to their strengths. Believe it or not, people do have other redeeming qualities.
