Sit up straight so your tummy doesn't hang out. Thin is always in. You look so much prettier when you smile. Guys like girls with big boobs. Now that you've got your period, you's better be careful. I'd kill to have legs like yours.With negative messages bombarding our girls on a daily basis -- from misguided adults, from peers, from the media -- how can our daughters possibly feel good about their bodies? While you may not single-handedly be able to change society there are ways to make sure that your daughter's sense of self is strong and sustaining. In fact, this hands-on guide offers 101 ways!In 101 Ways to Help Your Daughter Love Her Body, two mothers -- one a clinical psychologist, the other an award-winning journalist -- have teamed up to provide parents with practical ideas tailored to girls from birth through the teenage years. These initiatives inform parents and encourage them to take active roles in helping their daughters develop confidence, treat their bodies with love and respect, and make peace with their unique builds so that they can revel in a sense of femaleness and physical competence.Psychologically astute and fun to read, this proactive guide will help define a new generation of healthy girls. There's no better time than now to help our daughters, young and growing, learn to love their bodies.
Got this book because I am the mother of two toddler girls and I want to break the cycle of low self-esteem and self-worth that I and my sisters seem to have inherited from our Mother (and Father). I didn't realize how much I would actually learn, and be able to immediately apply in my day to day interactions with them. The authors' writing style is easy and non-judgmental. I found myself highlighting and writing in the margins so I can go back to this book as a quick reference. This book is the beginning of my journey to loving myself, just as I am, and passing those vital values on to my children. I always thought having low self-esteem and self-worth was just part of my personality that I had come to accept b/c I was not aesthetically perfect. I now see that it is something that has to be unlearned, and this book is my first step into being the change I want to see in my children. If you think you can expect to raise children who are confident and feel worthy and value themselves, without modeling that for them, you are wrong. Our children are mirror images of us in many ways. This book will help parents help their children, and prepare them for the real world which isn't full of the positive regard they may get at home. I've already gifted it to 3 women I know, and have actually gotten my husband to read a few chapters. It will teach parents how to teach and model positive self-worth, an appreciation for character, resilience, and above all being comfortable and appreciating the bodies we have because we are deeper and more beautiful than any physical form. The book aims to help us truly accept who we are and the gifts we can take for granted. It would make a great gift for any parent, of girls or boys, or a Mom-to-be.
