Parental perception of their children's appropriate weight and body mass index is desirable as it can help parents monitor their child's weight and prevent them from becoming overweight or obese. This can be achieved by regularly monitoring their child's weight and height, and consulting with their healthcare provider to ensure their child is on track. A restrictive feeding style (A) and parental perception of food as a reward for good behavior (B) can contribute to the development of disordered eating habits and a negative relationship with food. Parental perception of giving in to children's food preference as a proof of love (D) can also contribute to unhealthy eating habits and obesity.
