Friend visited me after the pandemic started to wind down. She didn't change or shower the entire time. Pijamas the entiretime. It was soooo disgusting. She was lazy and selfish and on her phone the entire time. She never used to be like this. Ive seen a lot of these slides for a lot of people, I think the pandemic fucked things up in lasting ways. It's so dramatic to see evidence of this everywhere, especially with how people dress and their hygiene.
Never base childs confidence on his/hers looks which they did nothing to earn them, that's not a strong base, base on character. On the other hand, no matter how your child looks, he/she should be comfortable in their looks, certainly don't feel ugly, even if they don't meet "the criteria" which is subjective. >

Pssst... you're going to get old and wrinkly one day. 
Life doesn't care what you want. With your current outlook, you'd better hope that you stay lucky enough to avoid accidents/tragedies that impact your face. Car accidents, tumors, building collapses, a new autoimmune problem, a stray transport tire, a fire, a falling object, etc can all happen to you unexpectedly. You won't magically be safe from them just because you dislike ugly people.
I hope they don't happen to you, but you'd currently be screwed if it does happen, based on your response. Would you lose all of your self-worth, or would you try to find other things to be proud of? Your attitude implies the former, which is not good. I hope that you have other things that you are proud of. If you don't, you should try to find some, even if it's a hobby. No one is good at everything, but everyone is good at something.
ETA: A bad personality/attitude can easily make a "10" into a "2". Life's way too short to deal with people who prefer judging over self-improvement. You can't guarantee that you'll see tomorrow. >

If you are the parent of a 500 lb minor, you deserve to be in prison for child endangerment (unless there’s some medical reason for the extreme obesity). >

There is only one extremely rare disease that makes hunger continuous that would count as an excuse. Other than that, no other disease makes you eat in a caloric surplus. >

Antipsychotic medications can make people insatiable.  Some kids need them.  
But yeah, Prader-Willi syndrome is as real as it is rare. >

That's what parents are for. No kid will starve to death and die from an increased appetite that's regulated by the parents. But they will die from obesity. >

I believe that parents should not emphasize/place a lot of importance on/ mention frequently their child's physical appearance in any context, whether the child is above average, average, or below average in looks.  So I agree that parents should not tell an unattractive child that he or she is physically beautiful, but they should also not tell an attractive child he or she is beautiful, either. >

I'd extend this to say you shouldn't overvalue any trait that is outside of the kids control. 
My generation is full of former "smart" kids who burnt out and failed as soon as they hit a roadblock at least in part because we were constantly told how smart we were when our school work wasn't challenging. As soon as we did get challenged for the first time, suddenly we must not be "smart" anymore, we had no idea how to overcome an obstacle, and the whole foundation fell out beneath us. 
Kids who are rewarded for being hard working, or creative, or good problem solvers, have much better short term and long term outcomes than kids who are just told they're smart. I'd say the same goes for any other inherent trait vs one the kid can actually control >

There’s a difference between teaching your child how much appearance matters (which is necessary), and being harmful by degrading them. Attractiveness is a factor in everything.
The vast majority of people who think they’re ugly are very capable of elevating themselves to at least a 5/10. Yes, some people simply lost the lottery, and some people simply won the lottery when it comes to genetics. But most people were born somewhere in the middle, and their choices have led to their appearance.
So what I’m saying is, the importance of keeping yourself up should be taught, regardless of how naturally attractive you are. Far too many people fall into the trap of thinking they always have been and always will be ugly no matter what. >

Exactly this. I see so many ugly people who you can tell have just given up, they don't even do the basics like combing their hair or wearing clothes that don't look like they got them from a bin. 
It's not hard for someone to take a little bit of time to tidy up their appearance but instead, we have this new 'movement' which is seeking to remove all notions of standards which essentially says, everyone is beautiful no matter what. This leads to people not doing a damn thing with their appearance and thinking they are attractive.
Anyone see footage from the 50s when people used to dress nicely when they were in public? This idea should be the standard expectation of people in public. But now for some reason, shame and dignity have been removed from the equation and we see people in their damn pyjamas at the supermarket. >

The supermarket? You should see how people dress in the office. You'd think half of them just came in from weeding the garden. But most people don't subscribe to the idea that apparances are important any longer.
