Raising kids with positive body image is tough in our culture. We live in a body-negative, toxic culture that can impact how our kids (and we!) feel about our bodies.
But there’s hope! You can help your child develop a healthy relationship with their body and a positive body image.
Signs you might want some help from a parent coach:
- Does your child feel bad about their body?
- Is your child spending a lot of time looking at and criticizing their body?
- Do you worry that your own body image issues are trickling down to your child?
- Does it worry you that your child has gained weight?
- Is your child talking about going on a diet or trying to lose weight?
- Are you worried your child may develop an eating disorder?
- Do you wish you knew how to respond to your child when they complain about their body image?
- Have you been trying to help your child with their body image but nothing seems to be working?
