I just discovered Elizabeth was Sigorney's mom. I read an article about how her mother discouraged her from acting. Sigorney is plain looking. The only time sje looked beaitiful was in 4 movies - Ghostbusters, Witness and The Year of Living Dangerously and The Ice Storm.

And hey - notice they're all under the same name?
Have fun!

I believe that all parents let their children down in some way.
Not all children require years of therapy in order to recover from what Ms. Weaver seems to have considered the traumatic experience of being told she wasn't pretty at age 8.
Many others do legitimately require therapy to deal with ACTUAL abuse and cruelty.

You believe that every parent has told their child that they are "plain"? Well, I can't speak on behalf of other children, but, my Mother never told me that. That makes you wrong.

You can help change the world.

If you think that Sigourney Weaver's mother telling her : 'No, dear, you're just plain' constitutes child abuse, then I guess everyone in the world has been "abused".
