View submission: My husband(30m) said our daughter(7 months) looks ugly because she has to wear a brac

View parent comment

He wasn't equating beauty to physical ability, he said the brace was ugly. My baby had to be in one for a long time. It *is* ugly. It's normal to go through some emotions about it. It's unfortunate that op and her husband aren't able to talk this through together.

Nah he literally said “she’s not beautiful anymore”, that’s an asshole thing to say.

A voice of reason! Hard agree with your comment. OP is internalizing this comment as a judgement of their kid’s value. I don’t read it as that was his intent.
