I still till this day deal with issues of weight and your story of how you were "judged" or critized is what I went threw myself growing up. I was always told on how I could change things on my body and brang my self esteem down. I have a birth mark on my face and was told by many, I could get it removed. Or I was given old spanish remedeys to get rid of it. I was always told how big my butt was. It was prettymuch sickning. And I do see the same happening to my girls people say how big there breast are and its really none of their business to comment on their body parts thats including family. I have let it past but after reading your article it woke me up to my childhood I have blocked it out and the damage it has done to me and my self esteem. Anyway your daughters poems is Beautiful
