A concerned mom wants to talk to her daughter about her weight gain and hair loss. Is that a bad idea?
Of course you do! That question was rhetorical. I think it’s important, though, to sometimes still ask ourselves that when thinking about our loved ones. Because loving someone doesn’t always equate to loving behavior, and the question can serve as an anchor — which is what you need right now.way. But instead of her mental health and emotional well-being being your primary concerns about her, you seem to be mostly worried about aesthetics.
I do think you should say something, and it should be something like “You have plans for next weekend? Asking because I know you’re into Monster Truck Rallies, and there’s one at the convention center. Thought it would be cool to go. I’ll get tickets.” Monster Truck rallies might not be her jam. It could be thrift shopping or cow tipping or whatever. My point is that your child has expressed that she’s experiencing stress so severe that it’s impacting her body. This isn’t the time for “shallow and judgy” comments about her appearance, because it’s never the time for that. Instead, help her alleviate some stress and experience some joy.
