Freedom from Emotional Eating, Food & Weight Obsession

Parents Bullying Kids About Weight

I just read a New York Times article that made me very sad. It’s all about parent’s “bullying” comments about their kid’s weight…and the  impact that really has on a child.

Were you one of those kids?

Or…doing some consciousness raising here…have you ever been one of those parents, consciously or unconsciously?

If so…never too late to start the healing. 

Here’s the NYT article about Parents Bullying Kids About Weight.

I have worked in the Wellness Field for 30 years. I created an Emotional Eating & Binge Eating Disorder Recovery Program way before most people knew BED was an eating disorder, NOT a “willpower” issue.
