Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture by Virginia Sole-Smith

3.0

This book was recommended by a few parents I know. It brought up some great points about diet culture and our anti-fat culture. I don’t think I’m the target audience of the book though. The book also seems to suggest that we let our kids eat what they want, and I am not worried about my kid’s weight at all, I don't have issues with processed foods, but I can’t just let him eat what he wants because he would just eat candy and snacks for months on end without ever eating dinner at all. And I’m just kinda peeved the book didn’t address that issue since j think lots of parents face that issue. But it’s ok if I’m simply just not the person the book was designed to reach
