What You Say and Think Matters
The National Eating Disorders Association has compiled a list of 50 ways you can help the young people in your life develop a healthy body image and prevent them from developing eating disorders.
"Individuals involved with youth and adolescents, such as educators, parents, health professionals, and physicians can prevent the further development of issues and concerns regarding weight through their own actions and words of encouragement toward healthful eating practices and attitudes."The list includes suggestions such encouraging your child to eat in response to body hunger, and being a critical consumer of the media - challenging messages that link appearance with success or happiness.
