She Said She Didn't Love Herself Because She Has No Hair. This Is Dad's Response

December 13, 2017

Riley has Alopecia. She was upset about not having hair and told her parents that she did not love herself.

"Yesterday, I was joking around with Riley and telling her everyone I love: 'I love Riley, I love Gavin, I love Grayson', etc. Riley then looked at me and went, 'Do you love yourself?' I immediately said, 'Of course I do, you always have to love yourself! Do you love yourself?' Riley responded very softly, 'No,' " Riley's mom Chelsea wrote on Facebook.

"I was a bit taken aback and said, 'What do you mean you don’t love yourself?' To which she uttered my worst fear, 'I don’t love myself because I don’t have hair.' "

Fast forward to later that night when they got home, Riley's father wanted to talk to her about what she had said. This is the result...

The Internet was quick to send love and support to Riley:
