How to protect our children from our own emotional eating

This week on Parent Unplugged, I’m joined by Dr Anna Colton, Clinical Psychologist and author of How to Talk to Children About Food. Anna shares how we can heal our own relationship with food so we don’t pass guilt or shame onto our children. We talk about:

⭐️ Why labelling food as “good” or “bad” is unhelpful

⭐️ Practical things parents can do at mealtimes to protect children’s relationship with food

⭐️ How to stop our own food issues spilling onto our kids

⭐️ The importance of language we use about our own bodies

⭐️ How to handle comments from grandparents like “clear your plate” or “no pudding until you’ve eaten your veg”
