Parents play an important role in the development of these behaviors, wanting their children to adopt healthy behaviors, yet struggling to do so. The impact of communication about food and nutrition on the development of healthy behaviors in young children is relatively unknown. Additionally, as communication is bidirectional, it is important to understand how factors within the parent, including their perceived health and body image dissatisfaction, may influence communication about food and nutrition within the parent-child dyad.
