Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating

A Step-by-Step Guide for Overcoming Selective Eating, Food Aversion, and Feeding Disorders

By: Katja Rowell MD, Jenny McGlothlin MS SLP, Suzanne Evans Morris PhD - foreword

Narrated by: Tina Wolstencroft

Are you parenting a child with "extreme" picky eating? Having a child with "extreme" picky eating is frustrating and sometimes scary. Children with feeding disorders, food aversions, or selective eating often experience anxiety around food, and the power struggles can negatively impact your relationship with your child. But you don't have to choose between fighting over every bite and only serving a handful of safe foods for years on end.

Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating offers hope, even if your child has "failed" feeding therapies before. After gaining a foundation of understanding of your child's challenges and the dynamics at play, you'll be ready for the five steps that transform feeding and meals, so your child can learn to enjoy a variety of foods in the right amounts for healthy growth. You'll discover specific strategies for dealing with anxiety, low appetite, sensory challenges, autism spectrum-related feeding issues, oral motor delay, and medically based feeding problems. Tips and exercises reinforce what you've learned, and dozens of "scripts" help you respond to your child in the heat of the moment, as well as to others in your child's life as you help them support your family on this journey. This book will prove an invaluable guide to restore peace to your dinner table and help you raise a healthy eater.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Fresh ideas.

This book is very general but still very insightful.
My daughter has Pandas/Pans and Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), and of course all of the OCD and anxiety that comes along with it. I have been reading, researching, going to therapy etc. etc. for about five years now. This book is a good read that I was able to pull some good notes from; it was worth my time. Thank you.

Useful book for helping extremely picky eaters

Useful tips and empathetic to the struggle of parents have with picky eaters. Keep an open mind when listening as the information is not traditional feeding instructions- which doesn’t work for extremely picky eaters anyways.

Very Helpful!!!

Very easy listening and great information! Accompanying online resources are also very helpful! Highly recommend!

Poorly written

My dog could tell a better story than this. I want to know about this subject but this is unbearably poorly written. I wasted an audible credit on this.
