  Teens urged to diet do the same to their own children, study finds
  arents who urge their kids to diet may not only be condemning their own children to be overweight or to have eating disorders; they may also be dooming their grandchildren, a new study shows.
  
  The findings support what much other research has shows: that weight-shaming kids doesn't encourage healthier habits and can instead hardwire a vicious cycle of binge-eating, skipping meals and a lifetime of self-loathing.

  can compound over time, not only impacting the person directly receiving the messages, but also potentially hurting generations to come," Jerica Berge of the University of Minnesota Medical School and colleagues wrote in their report, published in the journal Pediatrics.
  
  Their study of teens who grew up to be parents themselves found that those whose parents encouraged them to diet were more likely to be obese and to have eating disorders. And years later, when they had kids of their own, they made the same mistakes.
  
  Parents may think they are helping their children by telling them the hard truth, but even those who manage to lose weight hate their bodies, the study found.
  
  "Experiencing parent encouragement to diet as an adolescent was significantly associated with a higher risk of overweight or obesity, dieting, binge eating, engaging in unhealthy weight control behaviors, and lower body satisfaction 15 years later as a parent," Berge's team wrote.
