Do ugly children become ugly adults?

I was a fat baby, cute toddler, fairly dire looking kid, and an awkward gangly teenager.

I'm decent enough looking now, wouldn't want to catch me first thing in the morning but I scrub up well. I like to think I grew into my looks; well that, or I'm in denial. :P

My wee bro was the strangest looking baby, massive eyes and a tiny wee head. He's a handsome fcuker now though.

I think it's more a case that kids don't take great time to make themselves look their best, they're just concerned with getting on with life and can't dye their hair, wear makeup or grow tactical stubble (all of the above gender dependent as adults!). As adults, people learn how to make the best of their features and how to present themselves well. Some kids also have very adult features that they just need to grow into and can actually end up looking really beautiful even if they looked gawky as a kid. But a kid who doesn't have great features (pokey eyes, huge nose, mealey mouth, massive cheeks, poor bone structure) isn't going to be able to change that when they get older so will never turn into a swan. They can look presentable and look well, but they'll never be a stunner.

I think the idea of ugly kids growing up beautiful comes from kids who aren't so much ugly as gawky and needing to grow into their features.

I thought it was Charlize Theron at first glance. The adult picture doesn't look like a human.

Did someone say Angelian Jolie was an ugly child??



Blah blah. As if you've never seen an ugly child.

He's not working specifically with them, paid to not discriminate between them and look after their welfare. It's clearly the wrong career for the OP. Unless he was just there "working " to fix the plumbing.

there is a guy in our group of social friends who would be considered ugly, he rarely gets any girls on a night out despite his personality being a good one,

one night we were out and he walked up and started talking to this absolute gorgeous girl who hugged him, the guys were all staring as she was as they called her "stunning" when the two of them came back over to us he introduced her to us, it was his sister.

i figure when two people make a baby, the child either gets a combination of their genes that are suited to each other (in this case his sister) or not suited to each other (him) or it is a case of half suited either you will grow into features or will grow out of features at different stages or look just ordinary like myself i suppose where you are nether stunning, or ugly

I think ugly kids will grow up and be less ugly.
Cute kids/cute teenagers are usually the ones who age bad or grow up to be ugly. Cute puppy ugly dog

My hair started to thin during my mid twenties, good to know it was my fault and that I'm ugly now! Thanks! Muppet.

He didn't say that though, did he?
