With eating disorders on the rise for both girls and boys and the emphasis put on “body image” from peers and society at large, we owe it to our children to cultivate core family values about what it means to have a “healthy body.”
Our job as healthcare providers is to inform, educate, empower, and inspire patients (and their families) to be proactive about overall health and well-being. We also want to provide patient families with everything they need to make confident choices about healthcare and treatment options.
