[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now it’s cool for women and girls of all shapes and sizes to wear revealing clothing to sexualize themselves for the male gaze, not just skinny and fit girls. What amazing progress for women! [/quote]

It’s not cool and the op doesn’t want to be cool.     Usually the problem is kids wearing clothes that are not the right size.   Make sure that nothing she buys is too small, in other words too tight.   My 12 year old is at a middle school in a wealthy town and they don’t wear crop tops or short shorts to school.   It’s in bad taste.  I don’t understand how so many posters have their kids wearing crop tops and full makeup in middle schools.

What would look really cute on her is cargo pants with a form fitting top.  Not tight, just not baggy. And if she wears some of the baggy oversized t-shirts or boyfriend style button down shirts that are long in the back she can wear leggings with that.

I don’t know if you mentioned where she is in terms of puberty and height but the chubby ones at this age almost all seem to grow taller and thin out.  It’s just an awkward stage.  She needs to find her own styles which can be found in the same stores, just not carbon copies of what everyone else is wearing. Not everything in those stores is too short and too tight. [/quote]
