Marilyn Monroe had a rough childhood. She had an unstable mother and grew up with no father, there was no identity of her father. While she was growing up she spent most of her lifetime in an orphanage, her unstable mother had sent her there. “No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they’re pretty even if they’re aren’t.” In my opinion everyone has beauty upon themselves and everyone should be told pretty regardless.
