RE: Fitness - The Kind That Really Matters
I see this with my daughter - the creeping pressure from her insane media-driven school girlfriends; but she always has me as an antidote!
Anyway, was here to deliver a different message:
The 4th contest, MAP4, has now started. Please go to: Minnows Accelerator Project - Six of the Best MAP4. More instructions on promoting your blog in the post.
Good luck!
I'm so glad your daughter has you to protect her, @rycharde. Young girls are the easiest targets for this sort of skewed messaging. Thanks for all the support!
And she's slim, smart, healthy and fit - so is deeply disturbing that she has to deal with that crap from the "I'm better than you" crowd. Especially when they have nothing that is better.
I know exactly what you mean. She's lucky she has you to give her the strength and confidence she will need to deal with that crowd. And I do hope more parents teach their children to not just love their own bodies, but to not hate someone else's. Maybe then we can truly start getting healthier.
