We all want our children to feel positive about themselves. But that can be easier said than done. Kids face an onslaught of unrealistic expectations that can seem calculated to trample their self-esteem, especially with the pandemic pushing them to spend more time online than ever. What can parents do?

This week on childmind.org we’re rounding up resources on helping kids battle body issues and build sustainable self-respect: Tips on helping kids safely navigate the too-perfect world of selfies and social media ([link removed]). How to tell when eating issues are a problem ([link removed]). A look at boys who struggle with eating disorders ([link removed]), and why they are often overlooked. Ideas for promoting healthy self-image in girls ([link removed]). And when does a distorted body image ([link removed]) become a disorder?
