It's bretty big, covers the top of his hip up his side, and around his belly. He's only a toddler right now, so it's not something that's bothering anyone, and it's not very dark yet. But I'm well aware that as he grows up, it most likely will get darker, it will grow with him, and might start bothering him. I would really love some advice on how to approach the coming years, as he grows up, becomes aware of it, and starts noticing he's a bit different. I don't want it to hurt his confidence, I dont want him to worry about going swimming, or what his peers will think when he gets to his teenage years. It might not even be a problem, he might grow up not giving a damn, and genuinely loving that part of himself, he might grow into a world that doesn't give a damn. But I want to be prepared all the same. Because I certainly grew up in a world where 'different' wasn't always accepted, and i couldn't bare if it my little boy grew up hating a part of himself because of that. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2DRXQjS
