my step daughter whos just turned 6 has started making comments about how shes got a fat belly and that mummy tells her she needs to eat more fruit cause shes fat and things like that.
it makes me so sad, what can i do?!
we dont have Bratz or high school musical in our house because i believe they force a stupid body image on to children, we encourage her to like animals and fairy's which seems to work well.
shes a wee bit chubby but james was really chubby when he was that age, her mum and her sister are really thin.
ive been telling her about all sorts of body shapes and that bigger bodys are just as beautiful as skinny minny sporty figures.
i dont know what else to do but i dont want ther to get worse, trying to nip it in the bud
