  • Parents' body mass index is positively linked to children's BMI and disordered eating behaviors like binge eating.
  • Path analysis shows significant relationships between parental depression and children's food-related behaviors.
  • Findings highlight the need for targeted interventions addressing nutrition and weight issues in children.
