[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please don't comment on her weight to her. Ever.[/quote] Ok not ever but please don't give her a complex or issues. If you want her to get more physical activity in, take her for hikes. Find out what she likes doing like playing soccer or dance.[/quote] DP. I think completely avoiding the topic of weight is just as dangerous as being completely fixated on it. There has to be a happy middle ground. It is important for kids to know that we have ranges of weight that are just right, too much and too little. They need to know about nutrition and exercise, and that those two things together can impact muscle mass, weight and general health. Ignoring the topic of weight is ignoring something important.[/quote]
