[quote=Anonymous]I'm not beating you up by any means. I have a teen daughter with several risk factors for eating disorders. Some of them can be changed (activity of choice) but are hard to change, because she loves it. Some can't be changed. (Family history. Me. Sorry, kid.) Because of that, I do keep an eye on her. Being a teen girl, she'll sometimes say something worrisome, but then doesn't follow through. And I mean that as a good thing! Like, she'll say, "I'm going to work out every day," but then she gets busy with homework and friends and her existing activities, and it doesn't happen, and it doesn't bother her. As long as she seems relatively untroubled/unobsessed about diet and exercise, I think she's OK. Most teenagers should be pretty carefree about this stuff. I think the cautionary messages you're getting are because she seems to be getting LESS carefree, and the signs that might be something or might be nothing are adding up. Does that make sense?
