Does she go to school and have friends? If none of her classmates call her names, then what you say might be news to her. Be careful when saying things like that.

Hello i'm 16 and i just wanted to write and say i don't think you should be telling your child that she's fat because i mean it just discourages her more and i mean i would get mad if my mother told me that kinda stuff. You should try joining a club or workout place together to help her and get her more into working out and that would boost her self-esteem for her weight and herself. If you would like to reply please email me at
