This was obviously done at the child's expense because the mother who was uncomfortable. And people wonder why our society so superficial & selfish?

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.

Oh please... Those ears were awful, not to mention that one was deformed. Why would anyone suffer with a deformity when it can be easily fixed?
If I had those ears, I would have run to the doctor as soon as possible.

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.
