Don't worry about it - you're just petite! And you might get taller in the next few years anyway. If people saying these things makes you sad, then you might start feeling bad about it all the time, and you don't want that to happen. You could tell people to stop calling you small.
And I bet your shoe size is still getting bigger, right? Hang in there, Winky |
Aha...
I know they want me to be stronger!
However,in their mind,they think that to be bigger shows that a person is healthy and strong enough!
Another reason they call me "little winky" is,they think winky is the youngest of all.Not only the age,but also the weigh and so on...
Believe me,I won't give up.However,I will be sad for it.Do you know?I have a little sister,she is just 12 years old.But she is as tall as me,and her shoes are much biggerthan mine!Oh...I am hit by her!

Poor Winky! Your little sister hits you? You must "squeal on" her (tell your parents), so she'll stop. It's not right, and one day you may resent her and she may feel very guilty -- nothing good comes from it. Let's put a stop to that right now.
You can get stronger and healthier with exercise, no matter what your size. It is fine to be petite, lucky to be slender. I am sure lots of girls envy you and lots of boys admire you. Your parents want the best for you, but they shouldn't confuse "big" with "healthy." And they shouldn't let your sis hit you!
Good luck, Winky!

Dear,you are so clever!
Today,my sister told me:"Oh,winky,you should eat much more rice,then you can be as heavy as me!haha~~"
Then,it really made me angry,I answered:"Oh,dear sister,don't you feel you are a little fat?"
Suddenly my sister's face turned red,and then,she said angrily:"Ok...You are just right,I am fat!"With these words,she went away...
Er,you said that "lots of girls envy you and lots of boys admire you."
That is true.Some girls in my class had said to me:"How I wish I was you,you are so thin!And many boys like you."
Some boys in my class sometimes come to me and say something about ...Their words really makes me feel shy!
I don't want them to say these to me!(Both girls and boys.)
Oh,my friend is waiting for me now.See you next time...
May god bless you!

See? You must be lucky if people think all these good things about you, why would you want to change? All you have to do is be a good person and be nice to people and everyone will be happy around you.
And it's good that you stood up to your sister, but remember that she made you feel sad when she said those things to hurt you - you don't want to make other people feel like that, right? You don't need to call her fat - just remember all the nice things that people said in school, and that being the way you are is actually really good! Your sister is probably jealous.
And you're popular with the boys huh? Lucky you  you'll probably appreciate that when you're a little older! |

You are right.In fact,I didn't want to call my sister fat,but her words made me feelsad and angry.Tough she knew her words would hurt me,she said it to me from time to time!I really couldn't stand her any more.So I called her fat!And frome then on,she stopped saying that.
And to be popular with the boys isn't a good thing.You know this is a world to contend.Other girl who isn't generous may treat you as an enemy.I have got this kind of experience,I know it is terrible! 
So I don't want to be popular with the boys!

Hi, Winky  ! It would be better for you to ignore all of this words. I think that you are nice and very cute girl. Just fotget about and enjoy your life.
I'm 19 years old, my height is 158sm. In the childhood i was a littlebit fat, everybody told me that i'm fat, but then i lost some kilos and was 46kg, it was normal, but my face began to be not so pretty as it was before and everybody began to tell me that i'm so thin... Well, i understood one thing, that first of all you just have to like yourself in the mirror and feel comfortable in your body and it doesnt matter what the people say. |

Thank you for your sweet words!
Well,you can't make everybody pleased,so just be yourself,and not listening to others.Then a person can live in a happy life.In face,I am quite pleased with my weight!  But my parents don't think so.
Though they have hurt me,here,you are comfort me!It really makes me feel happy!
Don't worry about your face,it will be beautiful soon.
Well,just be yourself!
