According to that graph, she seems OK.

I did some more reading and found this (I haven't found any info in english):
http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/IsoBMI
The table shows converted values for BMI 25 (overweight) and BMI 30 (obese) for boys ("pojkar") and girls ("flickor")
So it seems that BMI 19.86 for a ten year old girl is the same as BMI 25 for grown-ups, so at 19.9 it's a close call. (and when she turns 11 or even 10.5 she won't be considered overweight)
But now I remember all those Ricki Lake etc shows with a 100+ lbs 3-year old and his parent saying "he's just big boned"...
*Puts in Wii Fit*
Girl: Time to see my wonderful healthy-ness! I'm sure all those happy meals and turkey dinners made me weigh even less!
WiiFit: *Calculating*... Conclusion... You are a Fat Ass. Get up, go outside, stop munching on Chips, and stop playing this freaking game...

Classic... I have a very heavy bone structure (never broken a major bone, 7 concussions, so not for lack of trying) and my skeleton weighs approximately 5-600 grams more than a normal one... (one pound heavier in other words). I think the basis for this belief is that people with heavy bone structure have more body mass (could be more muscle and fat all depending) and accordingly weigh more. I weigh 125 kilo's, a whooping 37 kilo's more than the average Norwegian man, but my bones only account for half a kilo of that weight despite the fact that their structure allows me to carry/build more mass!
This is probably boring to most but I think its interesting and this whole "heavy bones" misconception is like a wildfire.

very nice
She's just insecure about her body. Seriously, she has way bigger issues than what a videogame thinks of her.
