This. My family went the “ignore it” route and it made me feel like I should be ashamed of it, the elephant in the room. Acknowledge it ans acknowledge that it doesn’t matter, she can still do anything, be anything. So many of us have been able to be very successful. I tell people often “everyone has their “thing” mine just happens to be more obvious than others.” Own it, be you and it will make it all easier in the long run. And if people make fun of her, brush it aside and tell her those people aren’t worth a second of her time. The one side note I would add is, talk to her about internal negative talk or vocal negative self talk if you hear it. I called myself stupid for years and years internally and no one knew. It really impacted me after awhile and outwardly I acted like everything was great. Took along time to get over that one. You are an incredible parent and it sounds like your daughter is already well accomplished. Great thing are ahead for her!
