Take the Fight Out of Food: How to Prevent and Solve Your Child's Eating Problems

by Donna Fish

Take the Fight Out of Food: How to Prevent and Solve Your Child's Eating Problems Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

All foods are good. That is the message of this commonsense book that helps parents speak to their kids about food and nutrition. It is a message that is long overdue, especially when you consider that 81 percent of ten-year-olds are afraid of being fat — half are already dieting — and twelve million American children are obese. There is a disease gripping our nation's children and it strikes early. Take the Fight Out of Food offers a cure.

This practical guide is filled with hands-on tools and in-depth advice for putting a stop to unhealthy eating habits before they begin. In Take the Fight Out of Food parents will learn how to:

• Understand their own "food legacy" and how it affects their children

• Keep their children connected to food in a positive way

• Talk to their kids about food and nutrition

• Recognize and deal with the six types of eaters —

including the Picky Eater, the Grazer, and the Beige Food Eater

With guidance, inspiration, and encouragement, this invaluable book helps parents to teach their children to eat for life in a positive and healthy family environment.

Synopsis:

From a specialist in eating issues and a mother of three comes the first comprehensive and programmatic guide on helping kids develop healthy eating habits for life.
