i think its really sad that people feel the need to starve themselves to make them feel beautiful, and even then they want to get thinner and thinner, i cant believe there are some 8 yr olds that are anorexic
tell me your opinion on this issue.

I've been there and done that! The sad part is not the fact that people feel the need to starve themselves, the sad part is WHY they feel a need to starve themselves. It's not about being thin and food, etc. It's about a lack of control in one's life. That's what is really sad. It's a very hard thing to overcome.

I think these adults that allow the vain words come out of their mouth need to be given a ticket to pay like speeding and any other crime for programing this image into a child's mind. I believe that a lot of this is put into the child's mind from ignorant people and they need to pay for what they are doing, because the insurance and the medical world is absorbing the cost a long with the child. I believe children live what they learn. I'm a over eater and it works both ways. People hurt people and the ignorance is out there every where from mother to the children, or from the father and mother to the children. It hurts and it kills. Find the cause and fix it don't stick a child in front of the T.V. and give them unhealthy foods and not take them outside and get exercise. Teach a child healthy living .Al l the substance abuse using parents that I've seen have damaged children and here in the U.S.A. I have lived all over and its a large problem.

i think it is sad as well.
my neice is 8 and she wears shorts with her bathing suit, because she thinks she has fat thighs!!! which she doesnt!!! OMG...she is just the cutest little girl. i really dont get it!! i dont think i thought about that kind of stuff untill like middle school!!!
i just dont understand why kids worry about that stuff!! you know? they arent done growing! how can you judge if you are fat or not, if you arent even dont growing height wise? things start to even out as you get taller!!
what is this world coming to?!

in most cases its not to feel " beautiful "
most people know that it's an ugly thing but they can't stop
it's a way to cope ...
