I disagree.
You can give them the confidence to realise that what other people think about the way they look isn't important.
Strangely in societies where hunger is a more pressing issue, very few people have this problem.
Reinforcing vunerable egos, by constantly commenting how someone looks, is papering over the cracks.
Making them realise they should be proud, regardless of outward appearances, and they won't care about 'body issues'.
Issue over.
