Do you want your daughter to have a better relationship with her body, with food, and with exercise than you had growing up? It starts now, with you.
Today we are talking about a study on 5 year old girls and their moms. The purpose of the study was to look at predictors and sources of influence on these girls and their ideas about dieting.
