its not unhealthy
i asked my doctor ]
For her age and height, that's not so bad... when you're at the beginning of adolescence you haven't completely filled out yet and also tend to have a higher metabolism... but if she seems like she's trying to lose weight or actually losing it, I would be concerned. ]
It's on the skinny side, yeah. Being that she's only 13, I would say that's not a huge issue for now. ]
