I have a little girl and she is just like her dad. He is 6'4'' and a bit skinny. He is only 140lbs, personally I do like skinny blokes-don't ask me why because I don't even know. But I think she is going to be tall and skinny just like him. She won't eat very much either, just like him. I was wondering if you think anybody will pick on her when she's older for being that way. She's nearly 3 and is about as tall as a 4 or 5 year old. I know people make fun of the fat kid but do you think it works the other way round too.

I've always been tall and skinny and yes, i did get teased at school for it. Best thing you can do for your daughter is to really build her self confidence and self worth. Most people get teased over something at school, but if they have a good view of themselves and know that what other people think doesn't always matter, then it wont be a big issue for them.

I've been skinny all my life I'm going to gain weight though , I am only fourteen nearly fifteen years old. She won't be made fun of in school. If she is , it will only be by other girls because they're jealous. Guys like skinny women.
I doubt your daughter will be that tall , But it's possible for her to be 5"9 , depending on your height though if you're 5"2 an your husband is 6"4 she might be in the middle somewhere , around 5"6.
I'm about 5"10 , I'm still growing I hope I can be atleast 6"0 by age 17.

Kids get made fun of period. If she's fat/skinny tall/short weird name/normal name pretty/ugly, she will get picked on at some point or another. Kids just have to learn to deal with it and be taught to have good self esteem about them self. As she gets older she might find it an advantage since some guys like tall and skinny model looking girls. Also she would have an advantage in sports like basketball.

Children are cruel and will find something wrong with anyone.
No matter if you thin or fat, short or tall.
You just have to give her a soft place to land, make her feel totally safe at home and make sure you have an open communication line between the two of you.
Hope this helps.

I think she will be ok
better than being fat, fat is just terrible, she might even gain a little, but nothing wrong with being skinny.

Models are normally tall and slim, I don't think she'll have any problems. I've dated a few models and I'm 5'10" and they are 6' or more, all legs.
