Thanks Katie. We know her mother has body issues of her own. She never liked her breasts, and wanted to cut them off, and she always used to tell SD her ankles were ugly, so much so that when she was 6 years old I tried to get her to wear some pretty sandals on a very hot summers day and she refused to wear them without socks, stating her ankles were 'ugly'. Her mother has always been slim, skinny now tho as she only weighs six stone, and even SD says she knows this is unhealthy, she has got fixated on thinking she's fat, and she is far from that. I have to say that this is the third 'fixation' in a row. The first was that she wanted, yes wanted, to have braces fitted to her teeth, and when the dentist told her she didn't need them she was devastated. Then she fixated on wanting glasses, and again when she was told she doesn't need them, was upset. Now this. The braces and glasses fixation weirded us out to be honest, because any kid at school that has braces or glasses tends to get picked on, and she knows this so we were unsure as to why she might want to place herself in the firing line so to speak. It's almost as if she wants to stand out. Perhaps she does.

We're so worried about her.
