Synopsis

Is your child a “picky” eater or a full-fledged resistant eater? Does he or she eat only 3-20 foods, refusing all others? Eat from only one food group? Gag, tantrum, or become anxious if you introduce new foods? If so, you have a resistant eater. Learn the possible causes, when you need professional help, and how to deal with the behavior at home.

About this title

Review:

This book is for those who have children with food issues... The tables and charts can be photocopied and the case studies are extremely helpful for parents and therapists... This is perfectly suited for therapists, students studying OT, parents and families with children struggling with food aversions.--BellaOnline Reviews
