A nurse is assessing an 8-year-old child and wants to identify signs of negative body image. Which statement made by the child best indicates a negative perception of their body?

A. "I wish my belly was smaller like the other kids": This statement reflects dissatisfaction with the child’s own body and comparison to peers, which is a direct indicator of negative body image and poor self-perception. B. "My classmates make fun of me because I ride my bike with training wheels.": This statement reflects social teasing rather than the child’s internal perception of their body, so it indicates social stress but not necessarily negative body image. C. "I don't know why my peers don't like me.": This reflects feelings of social rejection or low self-esteem but does not specifically indicate dissatisfaction with the child’s body. D. "I try really hard but can't seem to do anything right.": This statement reflects frustration and low self-efficacy rather than negative body image, as it focuses on performance rather than physical appearance.
