Listen to your mother.

everyone at my school tha is at that height is between 90 lbs and 120 lbs, so I would go on a diet...NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN!!

no it is absolutly not okay for her. But if you think about it, i'm sure she is being sarcastic. If she really loves you she would never say such a thing. so maybe you should talk to her about it and see what she means by that! =]


mandy
I'm sorry you are over weight. Can't say weather you are lazy. that is the? for you to answer

ita ok b/c u need 2 get fit and dont b lazy! i would so make my daughter work out 24/7 if she was like u! (no offence) not trying 2 b mean!


Angry EX-DEM
Sorry sweetie, you got a pa-dunk-a-dunk...or however it's spelled. Lay off the junkfoods and eat smaller portions and exercise....challenge your body. Good luck. :)

By the way...it's called tough love...she cares about you...run with it!


Corn Fed Man
well that is a tad big, but she could say it alot better, i don't see now how that is helping you any.... she sounds cruel to me.... do take care of your body, it's the only one your getting, but i bet your real pretty..........love corn

You DO NOT have to go on a diet! It's mean that she tells you that. If you like the way you look than don't change for anyone. I used to have the same problem with my brother. He always used to tell me I was fat and I shouldn't eat so much. As I got older he stoped saying it but he knew the way I felt about it.


old lady
I have no idea if you are lazy or not, but at 167 you ar definitely overweight. She might have been able to put it a little more tactfully, but what she's telling you is to get out and get active before you wind up with serious health problems.
Wish her a happy mother's day - or better yet, go out for a walk with her.

no i think she should be a bitt more respective =[...i think thats not so much considering ur weight to call u fat..but yeah...........tell her to get on a scale =p

No, of course it's not okay. It's not acceptable for any mother to say that about her child, regardless of whether they is overweight or not....that is besides the point.

And even if you are technically overweight, that does not necessarily mean you are 'overfat'. Your weight is not always a good reflection of how much body fat you have, due to differences in build and amount of muscle mass.

Take care : )

its kind of mean, yeah. Both my parents say that to me as well. I just don't mind it. They'll regret it when I move out coz right now I plan to never speak to them again when I leave

When people say flat out critical stuff like that, they're really saying something about themselves. Maybe she's fat and lazy. If not, she may be "fat" in a different way than physical.

Don't take it personally. She's feeling down on herself and taking it out on you.

Corey, if you love yourself and your body and you feel confident with it then it doesn't matter about others opinion, even your mom's.

It's your life and nothing's better than feeling good about yourself. If you do, the beauty will come out automatically :)


Brenda R
Well Corey, I'd love to have your body!
I am 5' 5" and about 200. I also carry my weight well, but believe me, you look "healthy" and not sick!!

How do you feel about your own weight? That's the most important thing when it comes to your weight, not what others think. Though I am sure it hurts when anyone calls you fat!

Being lazy, now that is different. I think mom is only trying to "help" you when she is calling you lazy. Is your room a mess? Do you like to come home from school and play video games? Do you sit around and watch TV? Is this why she is calling you lazy? I think this is being lazy, but on the other hand, what kid isn't "lazy" in the ways I mentioned?

You'll become an adult some day, have your own kids, and probably treat your kids the same way mom had treated you!

It's never okay for a mother to talk to her daughter like that! Tell her you are comfortable with who you are!

Well hun, maybe it's tough love, unless it makes you feel less than a person then it's not very nice of her. Are you very active?

It is never ok for a parent or any other family member to say those things. If her concerns were about your health, that would be different.


Kitty

No. Maybe ok 4 her 2 call u lazy if u really are and don't excercise at all, but not right for her 2 call u fat. If it bothers you that much, talk to her about it and let her know it bothers you.

Not at all. That is terrible she is like that. If you like you, that is what is important. Love yourself. Obviously your Mom does not love herself. I know it is hard if you are young and have her saying that. Your worth to you is what matters. Try and ignore her. It is so sad she is doing that. I am sorry. If you love you, others will too. Maybe you can help teach your Mom a thing or to.

I think that is really rude of her. If you carry your weight well and are fine with your figure you shouldn't have to put up with what she says.


CJ
it depends on how she Say's it to you. if it is in a nice way then it's okay but if she is saying it meanly then it wrong....But also remember that she is doing this for your own good. have you tried playing any sports? if you do then use that against her.
try to be healthy.... you'll live longer


ceprn
It's not OK for your mom to say that, but "I am carrying my weight well" is a rationalization that does not look at the fact that you actually are overweight.

Well if you are lazy you know it, make an effort for yourself. And as far as your mother telling you are fat that is not right. You may be heavy. But that is between you and your mother you should be there for her and if she is not there for you, you both have a problem.


nodrammamomma
Your mom shouldn't say that no matter what. I am 5'6 and at one point weighed 167...I exercise a lot and eat healthy food and have lost quite a few pounds. If you feel good about yourself don't worry about it. I felt good at 167 but I was very self consious even though I thought I looked good I thought others may not think so ... you know what I mean? Anyway, you mom shouldn't be saying that to you!! Some moms just don't get it....some people don't think about the consequences of their actions on their children...but thats a whole nother subject!

No. Your mom's mentally abusing you. Parent's should never talk to they're children that way.


Ask Sanjanaâ„¢
no it is not okay. she is hurting your feelings, and no one has the right to do that.

confront her about the situation.


32Toes
You are on the chubby side but its not cool your mom is telling you your fat. Lazy is fine. She should be cooking you healthier food and you should join a sport.

I personally don't think it's EVER ok for a parent to put down their child like that. She should keep her opinions to herself, she's hurting you when she says that stuff, and you should tell her that.

Tell your mom how it makes you feel when she calls you names. That is a very hurtful thing to do. She is damaging your self esteem.
