Of course, those complaints are natural, I mean, 8 year old girls look up to her, which really pressures her being a role model.
People get excited when summer comes around: it gets warmer, there’s sunshine, and the seasonal affected disorder that persists through those long, dark, grey winters starts to lift. This is pretty exciting, especially in my part of the world, where winter is VERY long and cold.
