Subject: We've (my husband and I) been letting her cover since she started kindergarten because other kids were picking on her about it (about the size of a bean and on her neck) and began to try to scratch it off. We have spoken to her doctor about removing it but he has suggested that for best results we need to wait until her growth levels off until then there's no problem with covering it up on a regular basis. Since covering she no longer picks at the mark and other kids don't point it out.
In reply to: 's message, "I posted that it should show, but if you do cover it all of the time in her daily life, not just for photos. I could see an exception being made. But if you just cover in for photos or pageants. It is hard to say. I know some people cover birthmarks. I just never start of at what age and what message it would send to the child. I would check with a doctor, I would hate for you to ruin her self esteem, either by coving it or not covering it. That's a really hard situation." on 12:31:30 07/31/06 Mon
