From Amy, Age 10

I have to say: I find this sight desterbing. Pre-Teens shouldnt be tought that they are too fat!! Ive alwys been overwight. People sometimes treat me bad cause of it. But it really upsets me to see so many young girls so upset about thier wight at ushc a young age that they turn to message boards about how to loose weight. be kids. I know other kids are mean. But if there maen it means they are unhappy. I had a skinny friend (whos nick name is Bean Pole) tell me last week that she always hated being skinny cause people make fun of her cause she is so skinny. Someone told her if she turns sidways and sticks out her toung she looks just like a zipper. ok, mabey thats alittle funny. but not to her! She said she hate being skinny and would rather be fat cause people will stand up for fat kids and go "thats not nice they cant help it" I dont think that happens very much but she thinks it does. I gusse skinny kids hate being skinny too. I ewish people would stop trying to make kids look like other kids and just enjoyt being kids. Ive always been over wight. Im also being treated for an eating disorder. I have bulimia. I hate to see how much this pree teen site looks like the adult pro-ed sites. Try to accept yoru self! People are beautiful the way they are. Dont let people tell your not cause your bigger than the skinny kids. besides. Who knows what you will look like later in life anyway. My aunt weighed over 300 lbs as a teenager. Shes now like...40 or somthing and shes skinny...and she never diets ether. Just have fun! Dont be afraid to make frineds. Its ok to be the way you are. you dont have to look like everyoneelse!!!!
