My teenage daughter has severe acne and we've been to three dermatologists but nothing's working and I watch her isolate herself more each week while my partner thinks I'm being 'dramatic' about teenage skin issues. We're completely split on whether to push for Accutane or keep trying gentler treatments, and our daughter is caught between our different approaches while her confidence disappears.
More people experience this than they realize.
A family is fracturing over how aggressively to treat their child's acne, with different risk tolerances creating division when unity is needed most.
