“…Lindsay et al (2010) found that the majority of mothers were of the opinion that having a chubby child meant being a good parent which was due to familial and cultural influence, and that some of the mothers perceived their children as skinny even if they had normal weight (13). When the studies conducted in turkey were reviewed, it was determined that, similar to our study findings, most of the families had wrong perceptions about their overweight or obese children's weight (5,10,21). However, contrary to these studies, Aksoy et al (2016) found that the majority of parents with obese children were aware that their children were obese (7).…”

Materials and Methods:The study was carried out between April and December 2017 with 212 mothers who agreed to participate voluntarily in the study at a university hospital and a public hospital. The data that were collected using a questionnaire prepared by the researchers were gathered by face-to-face interview method. The questionnaire consists of four parts including demographic information about the mother and the child, mothers' perceptions of their child's weight, mothers' applications for his/her weight and the methods used by mothers and the attitude they had in applying these methods respectively. Results: The mean age of the mothers was 35.75±5.56. 50% of them had secondary school or below education level. 52.4% of overweight or obese children were girls, and the mean age of the children was 7.94±2.91. Besides, 47.6% of mothers were at a normal weight, 39.2% were overweight and 12.3% were obese. 54.7% of mothers perceived their child's weight inaccurately. Conclusions:The study demonstrated that the majority of the mothers perceived the weight of their overweight and obese child inaccurately and considered him/ her at a normal weight. Mothers who were aware of the fact that their child was overweight or obese performed various applications to solve the child's weight problem Öz Giriş: Bu araştırma, fazla kilolu ve obez çocuğa sahip annelerin çocuklarının kilolarını nasıl algıladıklarını ve annelerin çocuklarının kilo problemlerine nasıl bir yaklaşımda bulunduklarını belirmek amacıyla yapıldı.

Çocuğun vücut ağırlığı ile ilgili yanlış algılar; annenin çocuğunun beslenmesi konusunda zorlayıcı bir tutum sergilemesine ve bu da ebeveyn-çocuk çatışmasına yol açarak aslında problemi olmayan bir çocukta beslenme sorunu gelişmesine yol açabilir.…”

INTRODUCTION: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the children's height, weight and the perception of mothers about these values and to reveal the factors that may affect it. METHODS: This cross sectional study included a total of 210 children and their mothers who applied İzmir Tepecik Education Research Hospital Pediatric Health and Diseases policlinics. Survey questions consisting of a total of 30 questions including child’s socio-demographic characteristics, duration of breastfeeding, time to start additional food, eating habits, mother's evaluations of appetite, nutrition, height and weight about their children were asked. RESULTS: The rate of mothers who were found to perceive the child's weight incorrectly was 54.3 % and the rate of mothers who were found to perceive their height incorrectly was 51.5%. Misperception rates were higher in mothers who have underweight and short children. Increased sibling number, the low level of education in the family, and the low household income affected the mother’s perceptions in false direction. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: In our study, it was seen that the ratio of mother’s misperceptions about their children's height and weight were about 50%. These misperceptions can cause the mother to be overly anxious about the child's nutrition and consequently develop negative nutritional behaviors which can lead to real nutritional problems such as low weight or obesity in the child. Therefore, more research is needed to reveal complications from maternal misperceptions.
