Tell him he is a man and he sholuld act like a man (males are pretty with their freckles). Show him my photos:) I've got freckles on my face and I have always been considered the handsomest guy.

My son is very fair-skinned and has freckles too (he's 16). He went through a stage (when he was about the age of your son!!) where he complained about his freckles. I think that's totally normal. Keep telling him they make him handsome and that the girls at school think the same thing!

Tell your son the truth: most guys who have freckles will notice that they will fade once they start reaching their teen years. And tell him girls think freckles are cute. Godloveya.

Show him pictures of people that are less fortunate, like handicapped triatheletes. Teach him inner strength. At 12 years old if you don't start now the complex will continue. Kids can be so cruel, words can really hurt, teach him to be a bigger person, but you need to bring forward examples cause he will need proof.

i hated my nose... my mom always said I had the prettiest nose. She always encouraged me. I made it past my awkward ages of 12-15 and now all is fine. Don't cater too much into his anxiety, he will feed on your anguish, too. I am sure you tell him his freckles are handsome... just keep on. He will get over it as soon as the girls think his freckles are handsome, too!

make sure your son does'nt get a complex about it but you could try banishing cream, it's great for freckles, you can get it from avon. be sure to tell him that freckles make him who he is though and that you love em. they will probably fade with age.
