Raising Body-Happy Kids with Molly Forbes

Parents Who Think

Host Danusia Malina-Derben gets real with Molly Forbes, author of “Body Happy Kids: How to raise children who love the skin they're in” for adults and “Every Body” for children. They’re talking about one thing every parent worries about—how to raise kids who love their bodies in a world obsessed with diet culture. Spoiler: It’s not about looking “pretty.”

Molly dishes out her no-BS take on raising confident kids, from smashing beauty ideals to using her household mantra “It’s not my job to be pretty.” You’ll learn how to dodge diet culture’s sneaky traps and arm your kids with the self-love they need to stay strong. Oh, and Molly even has a genius idea involving compliment circles that you’ll definitely want to steal for your next family hangout.

This episode? Pure fire for anyone ready to raise resilient, body-happy kids.
