So my DD age 9 is a little overweight and conscious of it. She goes to my parents every week, very close relationship. We were all round recently and Grandmother kept referring to her breadbasket (belly) DD looked uncomfortable.
It’s been a hard year for all of us with bereavement and other things and I think parents are likely depressed and grieving.
I want to say something (at the time was quite shocked) to advocate for my daughter to stop the comments but don’t know how and feel our relationship has been precarious over the last few years. I’m also conscious some comments made towards me when I was little have stuck with me and possibly charged my emotions a little. Any advice on how to word this would be massively appreciated!
