So the video pretty much explains it all.
I personally feel that the mother is projecting fears on to the girl. That is what it felt like from the video. And moms do this all the time.
I don't think that, at seven, a child would really be so self conscious about themselves. I don't remember being like that at seven, but times have changed. I do remember being very self conscious about my hair when I was 9, and that was due to bullies. I'm just not sure, that at seven, you can really tell if a child is going to be bullied for something.
Thoughts? Comments?
P.S. I grouped that ages by the "normal" thoughts that kids usually have around those years. Some years appearance is high priority, to some.

Poor girl. What kind of message is her mom sending? You need to change who you are to avoid the slightest criticism, even if it literally means cutting into your face? It's not okay to be different? What ever happened to building character?
Oh well, at least when this girl grows up to break down emotionally at the slightest amount of disapproval from others, at least she'll be pretty...

Yup. I really feel that it is her mom's own insecurity. You know how those mothers push their little girls in to the pagant deals? Most of the time it is because the mom wants recognition through the girl and wants to block her own insecurities by saying "she's my little star" or whatever. I'm no psychologist, but I guarantee most of the cases are similar to this.
The girls is adorable either way, but I think the mom is giviing some very bad lessons...

A seven year old has not even stopped growing yet. You have no idea at seven what you will even look like at 15 much less for the rest of your life. This trend is CRAZY. It is the mother projecting fears onto her child. This is messed up.

It's also because it's basically become a world based on appearance now. It's a place where if you don't look good then you're a freak, weirdo, whatever. It's very sad that a 7-year old had to get surgery due to bullies at school. In my own opinion, she was far too young for it to be even considered as a solution to bullying, and often when surgery is a choice out of bullying, it just leads the a new reason to be bullied.

And it also leads to more surgeries if she is bullied more. Just think if she were to gain a little weight and be picked on for that. Would her mom get her lyposuction at ten? This mom probably would. Like butterfly said, she's not even done growing! But if her mom sees it fit, I'm sure she will get her more surgeries.

I didn't come on any mention of even teasing. Just that her ears had been mentioned. And am i the only one who thought her ears looks bizarre and unnatural after the surgery?

What's really bad though, is at 7 years old, your body is still growing. So how you look at that age is completely different than how it will look even a few years down the road. Surgery that young (except in cases of severe disfigurement) are a waste, when it's something that nature will probably take care of given a bit of time.
