Should we implement biannual weigh-ins to assess eating disorder risk in our youth?

Many individuals develop eating disorders during middle school or high school. Finding eating disorders early on, specifically during this developmental stage, is critical to preventing the progression of these illnesses. A potential way to assess the risk of eating disorders in middle or high school aged youth is to conduct biannual weigh-ins. If the youth's weight shows a significant deviation from the previous weigh-in, a difference not correlated with a height-weight chart of the normal growth process, parents/guardians would be informed. A meeting between a nutritionist, the child, and the parent/guardian would be held to plan a course of action. There are two main viewpoints concerning the proposal for biannual weigh-ins:

1. As eating disorders often develop during the early teen years, it is necessary to evaluate youth in order to prevent the progression of a serious problem. Therefore, biannual weigh-ins are a step in the right direction.

2. Biannual weigh-ins are not the answer to combating eating disorders and should not be instituted in schools. There are inefficient and could set youth on an unhealthy path.

Using your own outside research (scholarly literature only), please choose a position and post a 500 (or more) word discussion post outlining your position. Make sure to consider all sides of the prompt, and examine how this would or could impact those without and without a diagnosis, as well as the effectiveness of this intervention on those diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder.
