Abstract

The most effective treatment for eating disorders is family-based, and parents play an essential role. Yet most struggle to know what to do and how to do it.

With a wealth of practical examples and tips that have helped many tens of thousands of relieved parents, Eva Musby guides you through each stage of your son or daughter's recovery. She provides solace and confidence, while addressing the real-life questions that parents struggle with.

The practical and emotional strategies in every chapter rest on up-to-date knowledge distilled from published research, from families, and from therapists worldwide. These pages will boost your effectiveness with an excellent treatment team, and will also help you succeed when you don't have access to cutting-edge care. With her lived experience and that of the hundreds of parents she has coached, this book will empower you to be effective right away, from the first successful meal all the way through to recovery.

Un livre animé extraordinaire pour percer les mystères du corps humain et donner aux petits des explications simples sur son fonctionnement. Tu soulèves une dent, et tu t'aperçois qu'il y a une carie qui fait un trou dedans. Tu actionnes une tirette, et tu découvres que la varicelle est une maladie qui donne des boutons. Tu tires sur une languette, et tu vois le muscle du bras qui grossit.
