KML,

Ya know what, I might not be much help to you right now but I have SOME things to say about your sitch.

Your D and my X have issues with ED, your D is going through a stage of experimenting with drugs, light I'm sure. My X's crutch is not looking for SOMETHING to escape her problems but SOMEONE. In a nutshell KML, your D and my X are the same little girls they act like.

I am so proud of you for not rolling your D's ED under the carpet and calling it "teenage growing pains" like my in laws did. They just found ways to cope, not over come the problems of my X.

I have my 4 year old telling me that she wants to be skinny like mommy, I never want to be fat etc. Is it just my D wanting to be like mom or my D being influenced by her mother? I do not want to take chances. I've been trying to reason with my D, telling her things like "You are loved whether you are big or small, you sometimes cannot control your body, you might have to accept that you are tall, round, thin or small"

If you ever want to trade notes or ideas, I'll be around.

PS..........How's your married life going? You doing well?
