...your daughter calls you upset because one of her school mates told her that her Mom was "HUGE"
...and then later, when she looks into your eyes and tells you how sad it makes her that people might see you that way, when all she sees is her beautiful Mom.
Kids can be so mean! I am a substitute teacher, and have had quite a few rude comments from kids. The most recent one was that I'm " bigger than the universe." I'm sorry you and your daughter had to experience such rudeness.
Thanks Jennifer! I am typically pretty thick skinned about comments from kids - but this one just got to me - I think more than anything it was how sad my daughter felt about it. It really got to me.
That is devistating and the one of the motivators for me to get healthy. Kids have no filtres and some of them are just down right mean! So sorry your daughter had to go through that:(
