In their toddler and older phases, children are still growing and learning about their bodies. While their initial response is love for their body, it is heart-wrenching to know that they are still fat-shamed and judged on the basis of their appearance. A little girl who remains unnamed was bullied by her classmates who called her “fat,” per South China Morning Post. However, known for her cheerful and delightful spirit, she had a sweet yet confident reply to render that people were applauding. Her dad shared a post on Douyin that was reshared by the outlet and people can’t help but admire her self-love and positivity.

The girl told her dad that a few classmates said she was "fat." When her dad asked her if she was upset about their remarks, she thoughtfully declined. Her reason why left people stunned. She explained, “Because it’s true. I’m fat.” Her dad added, “Yes. and everyone is different. It’s important we have a beautiful heart, right? “ The girl ever so innocently pitched in, “And all other organs, right?” Her dad applauds her for her positivity and gentleness towards dealing with bullies. The girl knew she didn’t have the “perfect body” per the standards of society but ensured she loved herself and the uniqueness of everyone around her.

The dad even recalled how when he casually took her out on walks after meals, she took it so lovingly. He’d accompany his daughter on little walks with the aim of her losing weight. The little girl mistook the same for her dad wanting to lose weight. Under that impression, she supportively let her dad know that he didn’t need to lose weight and worry because she loved him as he was. “Dad, you don’t have to lose weight because I will love you no matter what you will become,” she unhesitatingly said. People are taken aback by the girl’s kindness and thoughtfulness.

For a little tot to take things so well and respond based on her generous thinking is truly remarkable. Her words and mindset are something many people lack as well-developed adults. @williamcolon9280 said, “This girl is more mature than half the adults I know.” @sak00031 poignantly noted, “She knew the fundamentals of love. Most of us will die without knowing that.” @jollygirl94 added, “Her comments felt so genuine, I almost cried. The guy has one of the most loving children.” @andrewt5086 remarked, “I can't imagine how proud I would be if my daughter said that to me during a walk. This child is a national treasure.”

@vishal007 wrote, “She has a higher level of understanding than most adults.” Several others mentioned that she has far more appealing and heartwarming qualities like empathy and intelligence that define her. @SuperDry_ said, “Not only is this child adorable but you can see her intelligence from her talk.” @daywalker_7677 noted, “She's a genius for being able to take what was supposed to be an insult as truthful criticism. She is going to end up being the boss of those mean friends in the future.”
