Making a Deal with the Eating Disorder

Parents are often so relieved to see their child eating that they willingly make these deals with their child, but really, parents are making deals with their child’s #eatingdisorder. This way of thinking unfortunately reinforces your child’s fear that something is wrong with eating the food they are avoiding and can reinforce the #orthorexia or #eatingdisorder thinking in your child. ⁣

⁣

We encourage parents to feed their kids a variety of foods, at all meals and fight back against the eating disorder #fears that breathe below the surface. This is the only way to truly free kids from the grasp of their eating disorder. .
