Are Fat Kids Can t Do Math Negative Body Weight...

At an early age children begin to figure out how they should look and act when it comes to their body type. An article â€Å"Fat Kids Can’t Do Math: Negative Body Weight Stereotyping and Associations with Academic Competence and Participation in School Activities Among Primary School Children† that was written in The Open Education Journal, by Bronwyn Chalker and Jennifer A. O’Dea who can be credited because they are Faculty of Education and Social Work at the University of Sydney in Australia. They did a study of children that were the ages 8-10 years old that consisted of 6 boys and 9 girls about how they are dissatisfied with their body type. They were told to rank their body type from A being the smallest and G being the biggest according to the Children’s Body Image Scale (CBIS). Out of all of the girls there were only 2 out of the 9 that were happy about their currents weight, â€Å"5 wanted to be thinner and 2 wanted to be bigger. For the boys 4 ou t of the 5 are ok with their current size and the other 1 wanted to be smaller† (Chalker and O’Dea, 76). Slim body types are the ideal body type to have. By not having a slim body which is considered the perfect type of body to have that is mostly considered normal in girls because girls think that a skinny body will makes them feel popular but can also be harmful by poor eating disorders and dieting. For boys the perfect type of body to have is muscular because it looks like they work out all the time and have six pack abs. â€Å"BodyShow MoreRelatedDeveloping Management Skills404131 Words   |  1617 PagesManagement—-Study and teaching. 2.
