I saw TV shows on body image topics that sensationalized everything. I found bits and pieces of what sounded like good advice on the Internet but didn’t know how reliable the sources were. Oddly enough, it news online was when I read Mary Pipher’s brilliantly insightful Reviving Ophelia that I felt the most helpless. While this was the one book that helped me get an overview and explained the magnitude of the problem, after I finished it, I still didn’t have a clue news online about what to do with Phoebe. How was I to respond to her saying, "Will you look at how gross my stomach is?" when her stomach was as flat as a washboard? How was I to answer "What’s wrong with my knees?" when there was nothing wrong with her knees? And when no matter what I said, she came back with, "Well, you have to say that, you’re my mother." Where was the book to help mothers like me who need to address body image problems, not just understand them?
