Preferred term

self-esteem and children's weight  

Definition(s)

  • A close relationship has been documented between weight and self-worth or self-esteem in childhood and adolescence, although the exact relationship is still unclear. Drive for thinness and societal pressure to achieve the ideal but unrealistic body size have reportedly been extended to children as young as 8 years old. [Source: Encyclopedia of Obesity; Self-Esteem and Children's Weight]
