As a father of two teenagers and 2 pre-teens (ALL GIRLS!) you guys have no idea how hard it is to just convince them that they do not have to follow anybody's model; more importantly, that most (if not all) models available (desirable, popular) are wrong!
It is so frustrating that one of them, the one who openly expressesher desires to fly as high as can be done, is constantly the object of all kinds of bullying, sometimes coming from even people close to us who are supposed to support her.

Your will to truly take steps and spend time with wisdom and care.
This is where the true difference lies.
