In today’s visually driven world, the importance of promoting a positive body image in children cannot be overstated. From a young age, our kids are inundated with images and messages about appearance, which set unrealistic standards that can deeply impact their self-esteem and mental health. Let’s take a look at how you can combat this.
MIRROR POSITIVITY
Children are incredibly perceptive and often mimic the behaviours and attitudes of their parents. By demonstrating a healthy attitude towards your own body, you will set a powerful example for your kids. So, do your best to avoid negative self-talk about how you look and focus on celebrating what your body can do. When children see you embracing your body with kindness and respect, they are far more likely to adopt the same attitude towards themselves.
