Dr. Rachel Millner joins Cristina this week to discuss the recent American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines that are setting the stage for major physical, mental, and emotional health ramifications for both parents and children as young as 2 years old. Dr. Rachel discusses how these guidelines are rooted in fatphobia, weight stigma, and extreme privilege, and how parents can set boundaries with medical providers to help protect their children.
