Hello, I'm Sarah's mum. Her dad doesn't get home from work until late. He's a chef so he works unsociable hours. He does get to see Sarah after school before he goes to work though, and they get on really well, it's a shame they can't spend more time together. We've always lived in Brighton - Sarah's dad was born here and I met him when I came here to go to university.

I'm a primary school teacher at Sarah's old school. I think she was glad that she wasn't in my classes because she got teased quite a bit about it anyway. She doesn't have to worry about that now, though but I think she gets teased about her weight now instead. Not that she has ever told me about it directly, but she just seems miserable most of the time and I know she doesn't really have any friends. She puts her self down and is always on some diet or other. The whole thing makes me angry. I tell her that she is not fat and that all these skinny girls look ill, I bet half of them are anorexic. But she won't listen she just goes to her room. You know, I don't think she even tries to make friends. The kids at school can't be that bad, I mean I should know I taught most of them.
