So about 8 years ago I threw out my bathroom scales. I have a daughter and I didn't want her to have an issue with her weight as she grew up. In an attempt to avoid that I decided to get ride of the scales and didn't talk about dieting or food other than in a positive way.
Fast forward 8 yrs and she is mainly quite comfortable in her own skin but has recently put quite a bit of weight on. She's nearly 16 and is 5ft 8". The past few months has seen her weight creep up and up. She was weighed at the doctors six months ago and she was just over 12st. I suspect I she has put on half a stone since then. Her diet is terrible. She doesn't seem to be aware of the change and her clothes still fit although they're getting tighter. AIBU not to have scales because I don't want her obsessing and being miserable? Or should I get some and help her manage her increasing weight by monitoring it? I'm generally a very body positive person and want her to be the same (I'm also tall and a similar weight).
