all those people in tha magazines are sick most of them are bulimic and anoexic and get surgery they think their ugly so they do all that stuff … its very un healthy to be too skinny…

im not just saying this b/c your mi daughter but the truth is your perfect

Answer #3

Ok, tell her lots how pretty you think she is, she will probably say something along the lines of: “but you’re my mum”, but really, it does help. You could always say that when you are younger you were much bigger than her, even if you weren’t, say that even if she was fat, then it wouldn’t matter because of all of the good things about her personality.

Mainly, just try to make her feel good about herself.

Best of luck

(This is from a teens point of view by the way.)
