[quote=Anonymous]My daughters are young adults, but I remember how they both went through this phase in upper elementary before a growth spurt. As did their friends. I said not one word because a mother must use her words very carefully with daughters regarding appearance. They grew some, and it all evened out. Then it happened again in middle school. Today, they are both within their BMI. I try never to comment appearance negatively, only positively. I really like that hair color on you, etc. Although in the teenage years, positive comments from mom can be the kiss of death, lol. Oh no, my mom likes this style so it must be lame. There were whole years where I said not one word about appearance.[/quote]
