Hey people call my niece ugly what should i do?

Question

my niece constantly comes to me and starts crying cause she says people call her ugly cause she has an unabrow and she has zits and she says people call her names like w***e,fat,ugly,**** and prostatute and i don`t know what to tell her does anybody have any stories or tips or suggestions on what she should do she`s only 11 years old

Answer 1

Tell her to not let it bother her. Everybody has their own definition of beauty, and she is only 11. Maybe do stuff with her to try to get her confidence up, maybe paint your nails together or sumthing. Let her feel special. Im sure that will help her. Just be there for her and support her.

Answer 2

The best thing to do is to build her confidence by telling her she is beautiful and stuff like that. Make her feel beautiful.

Answer 3

uhh...get her an eyebrow waxing, buy her some good acne medicine, & if she dresses inappropriately have her parents buy her some new clothes.

Answer 4

Take her out to or "give" her a girl's day at your place and do her nails and do face masks and hair and make-up (if she's allowed)... basically, treat her like a girl getting ready for prom.  I'm sure it'd make her feel better, and she'd probably leave more confident than before.

Answer 5

Help her out. Pluck her unibrow, get her some acne meds and take her out to get her some self esteem.

Answer 6

Maybe you should take her to a salt water pool for a few weeks it clears acne and makes your skin clear I would also take her to get her eyebrows waxed and if you take her to do that you could also get her nails done and take her shopping so that she fills beautiful.

Answer 7

I feel bad for your niece. Start by taking her in the salon and getting a eyebrow wax or plucking done. Try changing her hair style too. Get her some new clothes, the sales people who work there can help. Then go to a dermatologist if her acne is really bad. Of course you should encourage washing her face with clearasil too if she hasn't tried that.

When people are mean to her, she needs to stick up for herself. If they pick on her it might mean that she lets  them and is an easy target. Help her come up with ways to leave and things to say.

Answer 8

i went through things like that to but not as bad at all!!!! some good things to do are... talk to the teacher,talk to the kids,tell her she looks beautiful every day and tell  her they are just jealous of how gorgeous she really is! tell her to ignore the kids and just walk away laughing! if this continues you should IMMEDIATELY talk to the parents and some police if it gets worse for her looks i would recomend her to get an eyebrow waxing! thank you and i hope i helped out!

Answer 9

i honestly think people would do that because they could see she's insecure. i would take her to get her unibrow waxed and get her proactiv or something to clear up the zits. it will make her feel more confident in herself, and people will be able to see that in her and won't make fun of her anymore.

Answer 10

Do your best to boost her self esteem so that she can ignore them. Teach her smart comments to tell the people.

One thing I find works wonders to boost self esteem is to buy her a notebook, make it something nice that she will enjoy writing in. Have her write 5 things a day that she likes about herself. every day they must be five different things.

All you can do is help her to love herself, and to know the other kids are idiots. Just don't teach her to call them idiots. lol :)

Answer 11

encourage her, take her to the salon and tell them to cut the unibrow, get her some neutragena for the zits and talk to her.  ask her what does she not like about herself.

Answer 12

oh my gosh that's horrible! :( i feel bad for her.  maybe you can help her with her appearence a little? like show her how to were her hair pretty and idk wash her face with some sorta stuff that will help her acne. anyway tell her that it doesn't matter what other people say and they really don't think that. they just say that stuff to make themselves feel better. and she's really beautiful on the inside and a great person. and tell her to act like the insults don't affect her when they say mean things. tell her to ignore them. and tell her to stick around her true friends and do stuff she likes to do to get her mind off of those insults and mean people. hope everything turns out alright for her

Answer 13

teach her self worth. (this is difficult, there are no american quick fixes or silver bullets for this.)

1. involve her in sports , things she can do easily that on the long run can improve her physical skills. she will gain confidence with this.(involve the family, this is crucial).

since she is only 11, she can have a nice transformation and blossom into a wonderful human being. if you do nothing puberty is going to send her into a downward spiral.

2. make sure she feels loved at home , teach her values like dignity and do drills of how she can build an invisible wall aorund herself when people call her names, so intead of going mad she smiles because they are a bunch of idiots.

3. try to talk to the parents of the main bullyes, do so in avery friendly way.. if things keep bad, you can sue them and you will win!! thats for sure.

4. teach your niece a hobby, painting , music wahatever..when pressure is to hard we all need somewhere to scape..it will help her and it will make her more confident. videogames and celebrity culture dont help..

she needs to gain confidence, you can start small, like teaching her how good is to be nice to old realatives and their friends by  asking them how they feel today.

5. emphasize good nutrition  , feed her correctly.. dont satrve her. avoid sugars , plenty of fruits and veggies.. no sodas.. no junk food.

6. once she becomes more confident bullies will go away, choosing the right outfits and the right grooming helps..

make sure you or other member of the family does change their ways.. so she can see it as an example.

Answer 14

Sign her up for karate.

Answer 15

Pluck her unibrow, you and her join weight watchers, not to lose weight, but to get healthy, and have together time, get her on pro active, or Clinique- both work great, and tell her just to be nice to them, because the only reason they are being mean is because they aren't satisfied with their own lives.

Answer 16

Kids will be kids,

they tease their peers

and do mean things.

A lot of us go through it for our whole lives.

Just tell her to ignore them, even though it's

hard. Someday they'll be jealous of her because she'll

grow up to be beautiful.  :)

Answer 17

explain to her that ppl are just judging her on the outside because they don't know how beautiful she is on the inside and the ppl who are teasing her are ugly on both the outside and inside.  take her to the doc and get some acne meds and take her to a salon and get her eyebrows waxed. Give her a make-over. Go to the mall and shop around and stuff. maybe she'll get a few complements. if she doesnt just go up to a group of teen girls when she's looking at something or wont notice and have her go call her pretty or complement her outfit or something to boost her self esteem

Answer 18

yea she has self- esteem problems.but help her out what 11 year doesn't want to look pretty fix her up....

Answer 19

Take her out for a girls day. Do stuff to raise her self esteem, and get a makeover together, or something fun. She'll look better to other people, and feel better about herself, and then she'll be more likely to stand up for herself.

Answer 20

proactive and get the unabrow cut, diet
