Bullying Children About Their Weight is Destructive



At Eating Disorder Hope, we are not only concerned about those with existing eating disorders.  We are also very concerned about our youth and their developing body images and self esteem.  We recognize that many of the wounds sustained in childhood, often from bullying, can haunt individuals all of their lives.  That is why we strongly support this excellent article by Dr. Dena Cabrera of Remuda Ranch, that addresses bullying and weight issues: http://www.eatingdisorderhope.com/article_weightism.html

What are your thoughts about bullying, kids and weight issues?
