    For my 3YO daughter, "big" is the best compliment that she can give or receive. She's the youngest, so that explains why. She corrects me if I call her a "little girl," and she constantly tells me that I'm a "big, big mommy" or - the ultimate compliment in her world - that I'm "way huge."

He was so kind about it, even saying I wasn't fat. I told him that I was, but I was also working on it, that's why I was counting calories and exercising. He handled the situation well.

    I am so upset about this, I just want to cry. This isn't what I wanted for my life.
    I"m so sorry, sometimes kids can be so cruel. I can remember about 8 yrs ago babysitting for some brats, ( and I"m not just saying that, they were brats, lol ) and we were making popcorn and he said something like really simple like "you're fat!" and I just replied with an angry
    ( not really angry, but stern "AND"?? and he just looked at me, and I said it's not poliete to call ppl fat, don't ever say that again to anyone you think is fat. He just said ok, i'm sorry.

    Thanks for all your support, you guys are the best.

    It looks like it was an isolated event (nothing has happened since) so for that I am grateful.
