Anna Lutz and Elizabeth Davenport have a conversation with Ginny Jones, the founder of More-Love.org, and a parent coach who helps parents of kids with body image issues, eating issues, and eating disorders. They discuss: How parents can support children in larger bodies.  The impact on children of public health programs and initiatives such as school nutrition curriculum, posters, media focusing on weight, and messaging in doctor's offices, that are inherently weight-biased. Advice for parents of larger bodied children who might be concerned about their child's weight and eating. Ways to navigate comments from other parents, family members, or healthcare professionals who judge parenting through a weight-biased lens.  Things a parent can do or say if their child expresses concern about their body, or asks if they're fat. How parents and caregivers can promote weight inclusivity and body positivity in their homes.
