Here is an article on Anorexia that is quite good. Found it on yahoo news.
Anorexia striking children as young as seven

Anyone ever consider some of the atrocious 'fashions'?
No kidding. No wonder these kids feel such pressure to be thin. The fashions they are wearing are so revealing that every ounce of fat shows as a blemish. It's a real shame too. I wonder if the recent models' deaths will impact the fashion world at all. A few years back the models were encouraged to be thin, but not too thin. In the recent seasons that gaunt, anorexic look has come back to the runway. Hopefully designers will take notice and start allowing for natural feminine curves.
