I want to hug her and protect her but the truth is the world is an evil place and even the people we hold close to our hearts will hurt us and make us weak.
That word "fat" she gets called everyday will destroy her mentally and all I can do is tell her it's not true and hope that she's trusts me.
I've been in those shoes, I still am and for a **** 8 year old to be going through this is so disturbing to me.
She acted like she didn't care when I brought it up, but once I showed her i genuinely care, she opened up. No one should be called names on their body, no one. Yet everyone does it.
