The Mother Feeding Her Son Into Obesity | Jo Frost Extreme Parental Guidance | Origin

Jo Frost tackles two of today’s toughest and most controversial parenting issues: ADHD and obesity. She meets the Coughlan family whose seven‑year‑old son Regan has recently been diagnosed with ADHD, and the family struggles to cope with and understand his erratic behaviour. In Manchester, 10‑year‑old Josh Dumbleton is close to being morbidly obese, and his mum doesn’t know how to help him—could she be part of the problem? In a revealing study, Jo investigates how young girls really feel about their bodies, questioning whether children as young as six regard themselves as fat, think about dieting, and what parents can do to help.
