Snow White
Quote From: beyond_itwow! I really feel sorry for the woman and her daughter. I think it is a shame that that the mother is so obsessed with weight and looks that she has to point out and criticize her daughter if she gains even a couple of pounds. Wow, get a life and quit obsessing about your daughter's weight. You are turning her into a neurotic, self-centered, weight obsessed person. Thank god my mother was never like that, she always told me how beautiful I was (even during my awkward years) and taught me that inner beauty was way more important than how you look on the outside because beauty fades no matter how much plastic surgery you have. Besides, eventually you end up looking unnatural and creepy. I suggest you focus on developing your inner self so that when your looks eventually fade (and they will) you have inner beauty. I have to say I think Dr. Phil was way too easy on this woman and the damage she is doing to herself and her daughter. There is nothing wrong with dieting and exercising to look your best and taking pride in your appearance but there are limits. I agree the damage to this girl as been done. Mama needs to get a life. The girl needs a passion to follow besides self. Lets see does anyone think this story resembles "Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who is fairest of us all"? Didn't that story involve a competitive step-mother? Unfortunately if a handsome prince should appear everyone will be too busy with the mirror to notice. Maybe the moral of that story is to get away from the competition, roll up one's sleeves and get a passion and work on a talent. (For instance cleaning the cottage with forest animals and little men while singing beautifully.) Then if a prince rides by great if not, hey, the cottage is clean and some new friends were made!
