Dr. Mehmet Oz, Oprah's go-to doctor and author of You: The Owner's Manual, You: Being Young, and most recently, You: Being Beautiful, along with several others, had an important tip for all mothers on Good Morning America this morning. I thought it was so important that I couldn't keep it to myself.
He said of our children:
"They're going to treat themselves the way you treat yourself."
Women have a tendency to have low self-esteem, especially those who are overweight and living an unhealthy life. Our children see this and the things that we do to ourselves and also the things that we don't do for ourselves. As they age they will begin to do as we have done.
Today I'm extending a challenge to you all. Are you treating yourself the way you want your children to treat themselves? Are you seeing yourself as you want your children to see themselves? What needs to be done in order to fix this problem, if there is one?
Take care everyone, and have a great day!
Amanda
