[quote=Anonymous]It has been my experience that anyone who works out "a lot" gives subtle messages to their kids in different ways that body size is very important. In most cases I don't think it's intentional, in their minds they only share positive messages about exercise and eating right, but in their subconscious they are critical of people who aren't "fit" and they express that in different ways that kids pick up on. I have seen this happen several times with people I know. I recommend limiting discussion around weight, food, etc. because she may be hearing things differently than you think you are saying.[/quote]
