These kids are starting to look older for their age, the onset of puberty is hitting earlier, their behaviors and hormones are all out of whack, etc. While not everything is the fault of milk and meats, I know that it plays a BIG part. When the Lord decides to bless me with kids, they won't be getting any of that mess.
i realized that too...we went swimsuit shopping in May. i refuse to put my child in a 2 piece, and every single tank suit we tried on was skintight thru her booty. she ended up in a size 12... at the age of 6, you have no business with that much behind lol! of course, im built like that too, but my curvy genes didnt kick in until i was 19...we went school shopping 3 times last year. even buying things a size or two too big didnt work, her behind was too big. poor thing, she's skinny every where else lol!

OneTimeSBX,
One thing that I have also noticed just by trying on jeans myself in places like Macy's is that the sizes nowadays are much smaller than they used to be. You cannot tell me that I wear a 12/14. I am all of 130 lbs. and 5'1". When I first started buying jeans in Macy's as a teen, I wore a 4 or a 6 and I wasn't much smaller. How is a person who is 130 lbs. all of a sudden a 12/14. Come on now. The sizes are smaller nowadays. That might be some of what is going on with your daughter if you are thinking of what a size 12 in girls *used* to be. The sizes are much much smaller now for some reason.

The size thing varies from store to store.

About a year or so ago one of the local news stations got a "fit model", a "perfect size eight", according to industry standards. They hit a local mall and had her try on jeans at Banana, Bebe, Gap, etc. Guess what? She was a 4 at the largest. She even fit a zero at Banana!

This is why I worry about fit and not digits on the tag!

I'm a new vegetarian. I've surprised myself because I would clown those who are vegetarians. I started giving up pork for lent but that wasn't as much of a sacrifice so I decided to bring it up a notch and give up meat for lent. I was surprised with the changes to my body that took place. ALL impurities of the bodies were no more. I felt more energy. I never had problems with “movements”. In fact they were VERY regular. It would have been harder for me to give up rice than meat. I was surprised at all of the food that I have been able to eat.

I’d highly suggest it to anyone.
