Was there teasing involved in what your parents do and did the parenting match? their normal parenting style. And often what I see is the teasing goes undisciplined and it makes it seem like it's okay. Then we look at grandparents, aunties and uncles. What was the messaging there? Was there body gossip when you went to family events?

And what's really sad now is I am seeing patients who are second and third generational dieters. Their grandma's been dieting. And so you get that, and then that's just our family of origin. And now let's expand to the world around us. Social media, media, media, all of these messages that you are one bite away, man, from killing yourself, or you're one bite away from curing yourself.

And eating is so much more nuanced than that. And so it gets really, really complex. And the thing I like to emphasize with parents, I have not yet met a parent who doesn't want the best for their kids. And a lot of these things they do are a couple of things. One, it's really well-meaning.

And sometimes, obviously, I don't know your parents, but sometimes what's happening is the parents are projecting their own insecurities onto their kids. They doubt their ability. I'll give you an example with my son. It came up as you were giving your story. When he was two years old, I made this amazing meal. I just, I remember it. Lasagna, salad, my favorite cake.

I don't know why I did it all for me, but I did. And the family loved it too. So I serve everyone the same size of cake. He finishes his meal. He finished his cake and he looks at me, goes more mommy. And the mommy in me is thinking, dude, you've had enough to eat. But the intuitive is like, you know what? Let him have cake. I've served him another piece, the exact same size. You know what he did?

he ate one piece, he ate one bite rather, and off he went. And so what that does, I was thinking, my God, if my patients that I see their parents witness that, they see the self-regulation, but if they are tightly wound and they're afraid, they might over-regulate and say, oh, you know, do you think you really need that piece? Or in the case of your dad, you know, what is your tummy telling you?

What's your messages? And those kinds of things. So it gets really, really complex. And One of the things I aspire to for families is, you know, diet culture out there is just so, so nasty and so pathological. And the idea of changing culture is so big. But what if we simplify and said, you know, what if we end the legacy of diet culture at our own kitchen table, at least home? Yeah.
