How can parents help children have a correct body image and avoid eating disorders?

I think, almost parents use 3 ways for their children to make a good body image and good eating habit. First, parents show their children how to eat, and what to eat everyday. Without any explanation for their education, they can learn why they have to eat regulary, and why they have to eat good food. Even if there is no reason why they have to do like that, they must have felt that good eating habit is necessary to them and they have to follow their parent's eating habit. Second, Parents deliberately prepare various and nutritious food for them. These days we can find fast food everywhere very easily. But, due to their parents efforts to make a healthy dining table, Chldren can eat good things and have good habits. Third, parents make time to exercise with their children. by exercising together, not by nagging to them, parents make their children get a good body image naturally.

Eating disorders and disordered eating are dangerous behaviors that hurt not only our health, but our self-esteem and self-worth as well. No parent wants to see their children suffer, physically or mentally. Well, you are right, parents can help their children accept his or her body and resist unhealthy attitudes and behaviors before they take root. Parents should be role models. Also, they should educate their children. Anyway, you have shared good thoughts. You worked hard for this, I believe. It is terrific! ~Teacher Chloe I think, almost parents use 3 ways for their children to make a good body image and good eating habit.>>I think that parents have three ways to help their children have a correct body image and have good eating habit.
