"She's fond of giving orders," Lucy complained. "She's fat," Lucy mumbled（含糊地说）to the bowl "We are going upstairs," I said, my voice cold, "We are going to discuss this." And up we went.

　　I'd spent the nine years since her birth getting ready for this day, the day we'd have to have

　　the conversation about this horrible word. I knew exactly what to say to the girl on the receiving end of the teasing（嘲笑），but in all of my imaginings, it never once occurred to me that my daughter would be the one who used the F word一Fat.

　　My daughter sat on her bed, and I sat beside her. “How would you feel if someone made fun of you for something that wasn't your fault?” I began. “She could stop eating so much,” Lucy mumbled, mouthing the simple advice a thousand doctors and well-meaning friends and relatives have given overweight women for years．

　　"It's not always that easy,” I said. “Everyone's different in terms of how they treat food”

　　Lucy looked at me, waiting for me to go on. I opened my mouth, then closed it. Should I tell her

　　that, in teasing a woman's weight, she's joined the long, proud tradition of critics who go after any woman with whom they disagree by starting with "you're ugly" and ending with “no man would want you and there must be something wrong with any man who does"？Should I tell her I didn't cry when someone posted my picture and commented, “I'm sorry, but aren't authors who write books marketed to young women supposed to be pretty?”
