Re: Re: ARGH! another long post...Debbie

[Guest guest]

Your 2 cents is worth a lot, but it does not appear as if her friend is not

supporting her. She is admitting to a problem herself. Your situation with

your daughter is a heck of alot different. Your daughter's friend (and I

would not call her that) is not a true friend at all. What you quoted in

the message below made me cringe. My daughter is also 14 years old and is

175 lbs. She too is a big girl with big chest and all. She swims on a year

round swim team and has a lot of muscles. It is sad how our kids (not to

mention us) must indure this kind of ingnorance from our supposedly friends.

I hope your daughter dropped this person like a hot potato.
