Your daughter might be struggling with her height. Missing out on food and going to sleep early could be bad for her health. Kids need to eat well for growth. She could be lacking certain nutrients or having a sleeping pattern that affects how much she eats. You should take her to see a pediatrician who will advise you on proper feeding and healthy practices that help in growing up.
