This is an AIBU to be a bit worried about this....
Took DD (8) and a small group of friends trampolining for her birthday and pizza after.
One friend (less call her Amy) is a dear little girl, she is. mature, polite, helpful, and absolutely tiny... sorry to be blunt but thin. Protruding bones, quite pale, gaunt and fragile looking. I've never really given this much thought before, just assumed it was her metabolism and build. Everyone is different.
Her family are lovely, high flyers, hard workers, very friendly and kind.
But some of the things she said on the day really worried me. When we went for pizza she seemed to get overwhelmed, I ordered pizza for everyone to share and she just had a few bits from the salad bar, refusing pizza but looking quite sad about it. I ordered chips for everyone to share, and she said" I'd love some chips but I cant because of the bad fats and I'm laying off carbs" (she's 7!), then came the ice cream, you could tell she was so conflicted... she really wanted one but became very nervous and jittery about it. I told her I'd be really happy to buy her one, which I did and she enjoyed it, but afterwards tearfully asked me not to tell her Dad. She seemed panic stricken he'd find out.
I haven't told anyone about this but it's really not sitting well. Should I have a confidential chat with the school? I really don't want to talk to her parents about it as it could come across a bit accusatory.
It could be nothing, just a phase she is going through, she does have a sister a few years older so could be copying her. I just don't know.
Any advice please?
