Parents of kids 12 and under,
What we know is that roughly one quarter of our kids in Canada report dieting to lose weight. Body image struggles and disordered eating are not topics only relevant to our teenagers - in facts it almost always begins much sooner.
This newsletter is written to help equip you with what the research shows are the early signs of disordered eating in children so that you, your child's biggest advocate and closest provider of care, can detect when something is amiss and take steps to intervene early.
Be sure to check out the additional resources I included for further information on this topic if you have concerns about your child struggling in this area of development and health.
In this together,
Karen
