How to Get Your Kid to Eat by Ellyn Satter
Answering a multitude of questions--such as What should a parent do with a child who wants to snack continuously? How should parents deal with a young teen who has declared herself a vegetarian and refuses to eat any type of meat? Or What can parents do with a child who claims he doesn't like what's been prepared, only to turn around and eat it at his friend's house?--this guide explores the relationship between parents, children, and food in a warm, friendly, and supportive way.Ellyn Satter's books have reportedly changed the lives of many readers: she writes not just about food, eating, and feeding, but also about emotional wellness and strong family ties. By conveying her view that you and your family are more important than your diet, Satter blesses every food and you for eating it. According to Satter's research, being optimistic and trusting of yourself when it comes to food and eating is better for your nutritional, medical, and mental health than following a set of rules about what to eat and what not to eat. Is it true that allowing oneself to feel cheerful and enthusiastic when it comes to food can make you gain weight? Those who are skilled at eating--those who approach food and eating with optimism, self-confidence, and curiosity--weigh less than those who eat with negativity, self-denial, and avoidance.
