Your cp and mine look similar in body size/shape. My cp's one base at the beginning of the season always told her she was heavy, and it started to get to her until I had a talk with her and the girl that was saying it. The girl didn't mean it in a mean way, she's actually friends w/ my cp. She meant it that she was surprised by it because my cp was so skinny. When I explained to them both how muscle weighs more, and the only thing that matters is that she has the strength to pull her stunts and she (meaning the base) has the strength to hold her up, they seemed to understand each other and it was never mentioned again. It did have some last effects though. She will freak out once in awhile when something doesn't fit (she doesn't see that she's grown almost 4 inches from last year!) and in her other sport, they do weigh them, but not them specifically (she races quarter midget cars and they weight the car and driver after every race for tech and safety reasons) and she freaks out because my hubby has had to put less weight in the car this year than he did last year. When I sat down and showed her the greatest supermodels were as tall and lanky as she is, and how height makes a BIG difference in how some one looks at one weight as opposed to someone else at the same weight, she seemed to understand a little more than it just being "mom said". As far as who's saying that your cp-I would bet you my bank account that they have some body image issues themselves and are taking it out on your cp out of jealousy. I also hope the coaches read them the riot act. No one, especially a young, impressionable girl needs to EVER hear that sort of thing. She's a beautiful girl, no one has any right to make her think otherwise.
