Body Image Issues: Six-Year-Old Worries She's Fat

Taylor Call is a healthy, active six-year-old pre-kindergarten student who lives outside of Houston. By all outward appearances, she’s a normal little girl who likes to play princess and has an outgoing, easy personality. But about a year ago, Taylor came home from school and said something that shocked her mother, Tanya Call.

“We were at home and she just out of the blue said, ‘Mommy, why is my tummy so fat? … A girl in the bathroom at school asked me why I was fat,’” she said.
