journal entry to santa about eating disorders.

Dear Santa,

Hey Santa, as you may or may not know eating disorders are a big problem in North America.  As you may not know many people in the United States and in fact all around the world deal with eating disorders. Eating disorders can really mess up a persons body, but I think that you Santa could talk to the people dealing with the disorder and tell them how it is okay to be big and round like me. If you didn't know Santa there are many different types of eating disorders, such as anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating just to name a few. These eating disorders can really take a toll on the persons life. 
To begin, eating disorders can really affect a persons life. Most eating disorders effect young girls which will really affect their life in the future. If a young girl is dealing with anorexia, it could get rid of the life long friendships she may have made or not yet. HIgh school is a very important time in a girls life, and if they are dealing with a disorder, then they will not remember it like they way should be remembering it. Santa, I think you should stop by a little bit earlier to talk to some of these girls. 
In conclusion, I think you should reward girls that stopped their eating disorders. With draw is hard for any one, eating disorder, drugs, alcohol. But if you Santa, could reward them, I think maybe they could stop a little bit earlier. Even though you may be buying them to stop, it is definitely worth it. Eating disorders are such a serious thing in our day. They are becoming more and more popular and that is not good that they are. Santa, I think you should start doing something about these eating disorders.
