[quote=Anonymous]I’m grateful my 11 y/o tween shares her thoughts with me, and would like some wisdom on how to respond to these comments in the moment. E.g., she’s struggling with picking out what to wear and rejects a short because “last year I liked them, but this year they make me look fat.” For the record, she is not fat but hit puberty earlier and IS much taller and curvier than her peers. She is healthy and perfect for HER, but now she’s starting to focus on these things and is not liking how much bigger her adult-shaped frame is than “all of the other girls that are so little and cute”[/quote]
