My Beautiful Mommy — out on Mother’s Day — teaches kids why their mother, who apparently isn’t beautiful now, is having plastic surgery.

“The kids have questions,” author and (shocker) plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer told Newsweek.

My Beautiful Mommy is about a mother who gets a tummy tuck, breast implants and a nose job. No word on why that’s all she’s getting. Seems a little too subtle to me.

“You see, as I got older, my body stretched and I couldn’t fit into my clothes anymore,” the character explains. “Dr. Michael is going to help fix that and make me feel better.”

Yes, good thing her shirts will fit her nose now!

Salzhauer said while “parents generally tend to go into this denial thing” and “try to ignore the kids’ questions completely,” children are legitimately confused and worried.
