About this listen

Our culture today seems to encourage an obsession with our appearance and low body weight, and a lot of that is thanks to the media. Eating disorders are, quite frankly, problems with the way a person eats. They can harm a person’s emotions, health, and even relationships. There are four main types of eating disorders in children and teens, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Eating disorders often go overlooked in children and teens, but if left untreated, they can end up being deadly.

Parents and caregivers absolutely must learn about eating disorders and their signs. In this book, we are going to look at the following topics:

  • Eating disorder signs and symptoms
  • A brief history of eating disorders
  • What an eating disorder is- and what it isn’t
  • Overview of eating disorders
  • Causes of eating disorders
  • Four signs of an eating disorder that might surprise you
  • Five things to do when you notice the early warning signs
  • The medical side effects caused by eating disorders
  • Eating disorders in young children ages 12 and under
  • Eating disorders in teens
  • Statistics
  • Impact of the media
  • What to do when you become aware
  • Ways to help
  • Six tips for preventing an eating disorder
  • What to do, and what not to do
  • Fourteen tips to get treatment for families without insurance
  • Mealtime tips
  • How to talk to your child about their eating disorder
  • Helping your child feel comfortable in their body

If you suspect that your child or teen has an eating disorder, then look no further. Everything you could possibly need to know, and more, are covered in this book!
