This is just stunning.

Why would any kid know in detail wht plastic surgery is and why there parent would get it?

I can picture it now. Child is ready to go to sleep and they request this book as a bedtime story.

Favourite part though is the comments section... Here's one:

New Children's Book Explains Mom's Plastic Surgery
Thursday April 17, 2008



A Florida plastic surgeon has written a children's book called My Beautiful Mommy – out on Mother's Day – to teach kids why their mother is going under the knife for cosmetic enhancements.

"The kids have questions," author Dr. Michael Salzhauer told Newsweek.

My Beautiful Mommy is about a mother who gets a tummy tuck, breast implants and a nose job.

"You see, as I got older, my body stretched and I couldn't fit into my clothes anymore," the character explains. "Dr. Michael is going to help fix that and make me feel better."

Salzhauer said while "parents generally tend to go into this denial thing" and "try to ignore the kids' questions completely," children are legitimately confused and worried.

For instance, he said, "With the tummy tucks, [mothers] can't lift anything, they're in bed."

One mother interviewed by Newsweek was grateful.

"I didn't want [my son] to think [the surgery] was because I was hurting," she said. "It was to make me feel good."

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports that 348,000 breast augmentations and 148,000 tummy tucks were performed in 2007.
