Our daughter was born with a mild form of muscular dystrophy. She ran & walked tip toe until she was a sophomore in high school. Sure she had some teasing, but it never discouraged her. With the loving support of her parents reminding her that she was a gift from God, her self esteem rarely wavered and when it did, with God's guidance, we helped her retrieve it back tenfold. It's called building character that counts with values that count in the eyes of God, not man.
Yes, exactly.
I've had enough character building moments in my life. I never felt the need to be ridiculed over my looks, so it could help me build my character.
If that makes me superficial, so be it.
