Editorial Review:
When Your Child has an Eating Disorder is the first hands-on workbook to help parents successfully intervene when they suspect their child has an eating disorder. This step-by-step guide is filled with self-tests, questions and answers, journaling and role playing exercises, and practical resources that give parents the insight they need to understand eating disorders and their treatment, recognize symptoms in their child, and work with their child toward recovery. This excellent and effective resource is one therapists can feel confident about recommending to patients.

Rating:  - Should be titled "Does your child have an eating disorder"

Very good for family members and even for the anorexci person themselves. Simple and easy to read, lots of good tips for friends and family.

Both layman and professionals ... Read More

This book is a trmendous help for those of us who have no idea what to do. Instead of feeling guilty or walking on eggs around the person, it gives good explanations of the disease and ideas for interaction. A great help.
Rating: - educational, unconditional, and a grand lesson for communicating
I am a 29 year old adult who went through the recovery process of an eating disorder 10 years ago. Upon experiencing a reoccurrence of the disorder, I read this book. I was elated with the knowledge and kindness vibrating off the pages. I have gotten back on track thanks to Abigail. In addition to the education on Eating Disorders, I found this book a GEM on communicating. It has changed the way my husband and I speak and listen to one another, as well as our young children. It encourages family dynamics be explored ... Read More
