"Will my child get better? How? When?" If these questions are running through your mind, you are not alone. In fact, over 8 million people in the U.S. suffer from eating disorders and many more have substantially abnormal eating habits that don’t meet formal criteria for the illness. The challenges and fears you may be experiencing in coping with your afflicted child can feel overwhelming. Questions such as “why us” or “why this” may have led you in search of explanations for your child’s behaviors. Most of all, you are probably wondering how she can overcome her abnormal eating habits and how you can encourage her along the way. This book will help answer your questions."
