| Why Does No One Talk About Parent Training In Picky Eating | 16 Sep 2024 | 00:10:43 | |
In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked aspect of parent training in picky eating therapies. While many therapies focus solely on the child, they frequently miss the critical role parents play in fostering positive feeding habits. Without proper guidance, parents might struggle to implement effective strategies at home, potentially hindering their child's progress. This discussion highlights the importance of equipping parents with the necessary tools and knowledge to support their child's journey toward a healthier relationship with food. | |||
| Don't Make This Mistake When Picking New Food For Your Picky Eater | 09 Sep 2024 | 00:08:35 | |
In this episode, we delve into the concept of food chaining, a method used to introduce new foods to picky eaters by connecting them with familiar favorites. While this technique can be effective, the biggest mistake parents make is choosing new foods without considering their child’s unique sensory profile. Each child has specific sensory preferences and aversions that heavily influence their willingness to try new foods. Ignoring these sensory factors can lead to more resistance and stress during mealtimes, making it harder to expand your child's diet. | |||
| Don't Believe This Picky Eating Myth | 03 Sep 2024 | 00:11:46 | |
In this episode, we'll explore a common myth that kids will eventually eat when they’re hungry enough. The truth is, fear can be a powerful barrier that prevents children from eating, even when they are genuinely hungry. Whether it's the texture, smell, or even the sight of a new food, these fears can override their natural hunger cues, leading to mealtime struggles. Understanding this can help parents approach feeding with more empathy and effective strategies, ensuring their child feels safe and supported.
