People's height varies a great deal at 12, most people haven't gained much height by then, but some have gotten much taller already. So, it depends on height. I think 91 to 120 pounds is a good weight at that age, unless you are really tall or really short.

well your metabolism has alot to do with how much you weigh. If you have a really high metabolism, you'll never really weigh all that much. Another factor is how much she exercises. And what she eats. But normal weight varies greatly from person to person, because of puberty.

cassy, at 12 you are fine. eat good foods and exercise regularly. at your age your body will go threw so many changes. you are growing and developing every day and will for some time. enjoy being a kid and life. dont stress or worry about such things. if you were over or under weight you would have to make changes and such. too many young girls stress over this issue. so play.

So, she's skinny. Is she healthy?
When I was 12, I weighed 63 pounds. [ and ate like a horse - all my sisters did, and none of us weighed over 105 until we had babies ].
