Show Notes:

 

A 2015 survey showed that nearly a quarter of childcare professionals have seen signs that children aged between 3 and 5 years old, in their care, are unhappy with their appearance or bodies. This is just one of the staggering and upsetting statistics that we hear about in this episode of the Family Health Podcast with Molly Forbes of Body Happy Org.


Why do our children feel this way, what can we do to support them, how can we drive change in our schools, institutions and society? Big questions for which Molly has some fantastic answers and advice.


Everyone needs to hear this conversation. This isn’t just a topic for parents or carers, this is an issue that we must all take responsibility for.


Listen now and learn what you can do to support and empower children and young people - this episode is too important to miss.
