People are always telling me that my daughter looks like Jonbenet Ramsey, what do I do?
edit: here is the REAL Jonbenet....
Its a nice compliment, but she hears this all the time, in like Walmart, Ruby Tuesdays whatever. We actually live in Boulder, CO so I suppose people are more apt to say that cause the whole Ramsey case happened right in our neck of the woods...so Everyone knows about it. What can I do to protect my daughter so that she doesn't get scared if one day she should realize exactly who Jonbenet was?
haha see what I mean? That is my daughter thank you, and I will post a picture of her if I must!
Yeah usually when people say it they'll kneel down and say "WOW!" and she just looks at me. I feel like maybe we should move?

Well if the resemblance is really that strong you are right to be concerned. Living where you do she is going to eventually find out who Jonbenet was. It would definitely be best for her to find out from you. Do the people who say that direct the comment to you, her or both of you? If it is mostly directed to you she may not really pick up on it. If directed to her or both of you, I would think one day she'll ask you who is this Jonbenet everyone says I look like? I would just say she was a very pretty little girl that a lot of people knew who died long ago. If she presses you about how she died, say no one knows for sure but some bad person hurt her. Then tell your daughter she doesn't need to worry about it because it happened a long time ago and the bad person isn't around anymore.

How old is she? Be honest with her and tell her about Jonbenet (leaving out the horrible details).

Well whatever you do, if you do meet them, don't ask'em to babysit.

Whatever you do, please don't dress her up like an underage Barbie.
