#605: Wonderfully Created

Did you know that 30% of teen boys use unhealthy techniques to control their weight? This includes skipping meals, vomiting, and even taking laxatives.For parents with boys in this category, we wish there were something like 3 simple steps to help our sons escape the downward spiral of self-image and self-esteem problems. But it’s usually not that easy. In addition to consulting doctors for help, here’s something else you should do. Remind your son that God makes no mistakes. We are His workmanship—wonderfully created in His image. To help emphasize this fact, study the Bible with your son to learn of God’s care and compassion for us all. As you invest time and attention in your son, he will realize how valued and loved he really is.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
