My dd has decided that my dd is getting fat and that I should be watching what she eats to make sure that she loses some weight. I'm horrified, because she's only 4 years old and I don't want her getting hung up on weight issues. He is concerned because I'm overweight and he thinks that I'm likely to pass it on to her, although our diet is pretty healthy. She does have sweets and crisps sometimes, but not everyday and as part of a good diet I don't think that's a problem. Dh thinks I should stop giving her any sweets at all.
She's 3 stone 4 lb, just on the 98th centile, and she's about 3'7" tall, just under the 98th centile, so as far as I'm concerned she's in proportion. I've tried telling him so, but he still reckons she's getting fat.
Help me convince him that he's being a pillock
