what about the body image of boys....if there is no attention drawn to that isnt there the possibility that if say a boy has poor body image and there is no attention drawn to that by the media and society seems not to care doesnt that make it worse because its considered normal for a girl to struggle with good body image
Its just how the female works, what you tell her about her image is what she believes in or starts to believe in. Some people say if you dont like it dont tell, well if you dont like it change it and if they cant take the change, its there fault.
i agree with this article because girls and boys look at things way differently. What someone says about a girl she will remember for the rest of her life, unlike most boys they are just like whatever. i think by telling your daughter that she has a poor body image would just make her even more upset about herself..
I agree with what this article has to say because girls never forget what someone says about them. But yet boys just say whatever some guys do care what people say but no most. & if someone you care to know their opinion on something is telling you negative things about you it's gonna upset you and not feel comfortable with yourself.
males try to say nothing hurts them but they just hide half of there pain they never want to be seen as a wimp that is why no one ever thinks guys care. Girls can be heartless to other-girls as well.
I agree. What you tell a girl about her body is how she will look at it, and sometimes theres a thin line between positive and negative things to say.
ReplyDeleteagreed.
Deleteits only for their daughters protection. sure it will make them fell bad, but its for their own good in their mom's eyes
ReplyDeletestart out positive because if you start negative its just gonna stay negative
ReplyDeleteof course when your mom says something your going to believe it. and if anyone says something negitive about your body its going to hurt you.
ReplyDeleteComplement your children when they look good or do good. Correct them when they do wrong or look bad.
ReplyDeletethats a really good point especially for the marketed "tweens"
ReplyDeleteif you dont like your daughters image dont say anything at all but if you like her image then you should compliment

ReplyDeleteI see a major double standard here. Is not honesty the best policy?

ReplyDeleteif you dont like your own daughter image most likely she dont like it herself so the last thing they need is their own mom telling them their flaws.

ReplyDeleteI agree with this article because females tend to be more sensitive than males.
