[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’ll have to think about a way to approach this delicately with the friend/friend’s parents. As for us, I grew up with very body critical parents - extreme dietary restrictions, forced to do sit ups as a 10 year old because I was getting “pudgy”, forced to swim laps at the pool before being allowed to play, etc. So I have been VERY careful with DD, focusing on healthy eating and exercise for fun and overall health, and not about weight management. I know that I have body dysmorphia because of my upbringing and so make a conscious effort to never talk about people’s sizes or weight. I think it’s also why I am ultra sensitive to a possible eating disorder in DD’s friend. In any case, I’m going to figure out a way to alert the friend’s parents. I want to do a little info gathering (from dd) first. Maybe talk to the school counselor first.[/quote]
