Hi, I'm a mother of a fifteen year old girl who is totally self-conscious about her looks and weight. Yet, i don't understand why? My daughter is 5'5 and 105 pounds, she's the only skinny person in our family. Not only that but she's extremely beautiful! When I tell her she looks pretty she shakes her head and says, "you're only obligated to say that because you're my mom." My daughter used to have confidence, she used to have a lot of friends, but now all she does is sit in her room, study, and watch cheesy sitcoms and soap operas! She said if she felt better about herself she'd go out and hang out with her friends. How do I helo her push all these issues aside and make her feel confident?
