Dear Amy: My daughter is 33 and is a kind, caring person.
I am terrified that she will become so obese that she cannot find a new job or boyfriend — if either of those disappear.I suggested that she see an endocrinologist since she may have a metabolic disorder .How can I help her take the first step? I’m paralyzed with fear that she will die of morbid obesity.Your interest in your daughter’s body size, weight, and BMI is obsessive and I suggest that you get a handle on your own anxiety, by talking this through with a therapist.
How and why has your daughter’s BMI come up in conversation? You are either bringing up this topic, or she is sharing these details with you, perhaps testing your response. Don’t bite that hook. The problem? My wife and I are both convinced that our son and Kris are not destined to make it, long term.We believe our son is going to ask us to be honest with him about his relationship, and we are not sure how to respond.Your son might be asking earnestly, but I suggest that you respond extremely carefully. Start with this question: “What is it you’re looking for from us?”
