My daughter is an extremely bright, lovely girl who is usually very happy and enthusiastic.
Yesterday she told me that she felt maybe depressed and that she didn't see the point in trying at school anymore (she used to love learning, did extra work in her free time ECT.) - she said this was partly down to her grades dropping (which she has only just told me about) - she got 12\20 in history and 28/40 in English, she used to get 85percent plus - but she doesn't know what else it is down to
She also told me that she feels really fat - she is 12, 5ft6 and 6stone. But I cannt seem to get through to her that this is not fat. She also told me that she has been skipping breakfast and lunch.
What should I do???
Any advice helpful
