Everyone is getting what I had to say to that little girl,wrong. I am happy that she has an opinion, not many children do. I just think that my little girl needs to get advise from children who know how she feels. Not from someone who has been thin all her/his life and think that what they have to say is going boost her self esteem. There are kids on this site who have been overweight and lost weight and my daughter has read what they had to say and she feels because they can do it so can she. I just feel that if has actually gone through what she is going through that makes a difference for all these children. And by the way,Morgan, I do know what my child is going throw. I was an overweight child myself. I know not to push the weight issue on her. Her and I are very close because I went through the same thing that she is going through now. Again, I apologize if anyone on this website felt I was wrong to let that little girl know how I feel about her giving advice. Forgive Me.
