[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I have a similarly aged son at public school who also went through a lot of angst about how he looked around this age. All I can say is please do whatever you can to avoid your DD becoming obsessed with her image, her size, and her eating. This age is so tough for anyone, and especially in a new school. My only practical advice is to help her keep busy - find activities, a job, no-cut sports. The less time that they have to scour the internet for tips on how to lose weight etc, the better. [/quote] +100 If the parents posting here are similar to her classmates, then it be a toxic environment. I couldn’t stand that for my imperfect kid. Make sure you ground her in a loving supportive environment and don’t pile on her. [/quote]
