Have you ever had to be around someone who was on a restrictive diet and was extremely annoying about it? We've all had a coworker, family member, or friend who cannot stop talking about how they're only eating meat and vegetables for the next six weeks. What are you supposed to say to that? "Good job, I will be thinking about your BMs during this trying time." You feel bad telling someone that you don't want to hear about their diet, but sometimes that's what you have to do to have some peace of mind. It's best practice not to talk about dieting without first asking whether someone is comfortable discussing it. You never know someone's personal history with eating problems, and one might be hesitant to tell you to stop talking about diets because they don't want you to know their personal history with food and dieting.

Talking about dieting with someone who isn't on a diet is one thing, but forcing your diet upon someone else is not right under any circumstances. The waters can get murky when you're dealing with a parent forcing their diet upon their child. Should a parent force their kid to diet against their will if it's for the sake of their health? The parents in this story are forcing their daughter to diet, even when she does not need to, as she is a healthy weight.
