And that, you know, within that percentage it varies um tremendously around the lengths that one child might go.
But even as young as four, you know, kids are starting to make these kind of black and white determinations about what's um valuable in terms of a size and shape of bodies.
So
Well, there's certainly um a vulnerability
that's passed down if there's eating disorders in the family.
Um, so we know now
that eating disorders are highly heritable and are passed on through a genetic link.
And so if a child
was born from parents who have eating disorders in their family, there's naturally going to be a a predisposition for risk.
So I wanna s there's one there.
Um
Two is any individual who's naturally in a body that's considered larger on the larger side is absolutely more at risk because our
world contains a huge ama amount of weight discrimination and weight stigma and fat phobia that
this individual is likely to experience and that the general
cultural response to that is well well there must be something wrong this person mustn't not be doing enough um to manage their weight which is actually very, very false.
But we need to help those kids not succumb to, oh, the solution is
Try to lose weight.
Because we know that's not effective and more we really want to
help those children in other ways um and help change the culture.
So that those would be the two primary kind of populations that are at risk.
