Podcast 12: Worried about your child’s weight? How to handle it with Body Kindness

By Rebecca Scritchfield Leave a Comment

Today we’re talking about kids and weight, and how your body kindness practice can help the younger ones you love and even families that you don’t know. This is a touchy subject to say the least, but there’s been some changes recently that could make an impact on our population’s health.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) have just updated their 2007 Guidelines on prevention of obesity and eating disorders in adolescents. Their new recommendations are dramatically different and make us excited that we could finally start changing the conversation around weight and dieting.

Listen on to find out how you can be part of the change.
