From a guys standpoint, I can understand the hesitancy about approaching her for a relationship. She's pretty, great personality but no guy want to be looked at as a creepy guy. It's unfair on both sides and unfortunate

My niece died 2 months before her 15th birthday. She was the size of a doll. My Mom (Grandma) would take her for walks in the park. People would ask her how old is the baby. My Mom would say 14 years old. Everyone assumed my Mom (Grandma) didn’t understand months old and years old. My niece was non-verbal yet knew 200 signs in sign languages. Rest In Peace Meggie.💕

I think her face looks older than a child and will continue to age. There are many short people. I had a boyfriend who was too tall. Like a giraffe. I am average height. Made my neck hurt, looking up at him. My Grandma was about 4'8", and my Grandpa was 6'2". She stood, and he sat. She bossed him, and he was amused.

[@LifeofWalk]

Pretty cool! What I don't think is cool though is when some adults speak to her in an authoritative tone like she's a child even though they don't know. Why can't adults speak to kids with the same respect they speak with everyone else, then someone like Shauna wouldn't have to deal with that in the first place

[@jakefranklin89]

Because adults and kids are not the same and must be treated differently.

[@HexagonSun990]

​@@jakefranklin89 yes I agree, but I think there's still a problem sometimes with the lack of respect adults give children in their language and way of speaking. You must not underestimate what children are capable of. Just be accurate and fair.

[@paranoidgenius9164]

I've always been intrigued what would Shauna look like if she never had her condition. Could an artist create a picture of what she would of looked like if her pertuity gland wasnt affected? Recordings of her voice could be manipulated. I think it would be interesting for Shauna herself & her family. She is 1 in a million, quite literally! Maybe more! She is an amazing human being & she deserves all the happiness that's possible & I really admire this woman. Makes you think twice when saying that eternal youth is a myth.

[@Marmite247]

I think it would hurt to know what could have been, purely because she’s mentioned before she gets targeted by the wrong type of people for relationships due to her condition, so I think it would possibly just upset her? I think it’s a lovely idea though
