Quote from the ASDAH Statement in respond to the new AAP guidelines
The AAP’s Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Treatment of Children and Adolescents With Ob*sity reflect the historical commitment of western and white-centric healthcare to kill all deemed ‘other.’ We call for the AAP to rescind these guidelines in light of the reality that they violate the primary directive of healthcare providers to first do no harm. Our children and adolescents deserve better.
