[quote=Anonymous]I have a 13 yr old and she has never mentioned crop tops or her stomach- or her body at all to be honest.  She’s athletic and seems happy, she just doesn’t fixate on her looks at all.

This is due to your DD’s environment OP.  Maybe you/home? Maybe her friends at school or social media.  How are her friends dressing? At 12, it is hard bc there are so many different shapes and stages of development going on.  Some girls look 8 and some look 16.

Personally I would reassure her she is heathy and beautiful and not feed into her stomach obsession.  Ignore it.  If you see dangerous eating habits start happening, therapy and nutritionist.  But I do think it is within the realm of normal and not (yet) dangerous for girls to want their body to look a certain way.  Most let go of that notion naturally in time and don’t spiral into a dangerous eating disorder.  Don’t give her looks or body any attention or comments- at all.  And be on the lookout in case things take a bad turn[/quote]
