Ellyn Satter has helped generations of parents through the rewards and challenges of the growing-up years. Parents and other professionals praise her best-selling books, videos, presentations, social media, and website publications as making all the difference between joy or struggle with feeding and eating. Satter is a Family Therapist and Registered Dietitian, an expert on child development as it relates to feeding, and the internationally recognized authority on feeding and eating. In the Feeding with Love and Good Sense booklet series, she distills her stage-related advice into a few brief and empowering pages. These stage related booklets help busy parents address the unique challenges of the infant, toddler, preschooler, school-age, and teenage child. These remarkable books concisely and powerfully show parents how to understand their child, give themselves a break, head off feeding problems before they start, solve feeding problems, and raise healthy children who are a joy to feed. Satter’s research and clinical experience shows that one in three children has a feeding problem: is a seriously picky eater, grows too fast or too slowly, has poor mealtime behavior, doesn’t eat fruits and vegetables or drink milk, or has special needs with feeding. Studies show that almost all parents pressure, reward, threaten, and bribe their children to eat. Many parents run themselves ragged, preparing special foods or separate meals or letting their children eat junk food or drink special formulas just to get something into them. In the later years, parents often find family meals so unrewarding that they give up them entirely. Ellyn Satter replaces strife with success. For decades, she and her many followers have demonstrated that the way to raise healthy children who are a joy to feed is to follow the Division of Responsibility in Feeding. This booklet briefly and clearly shows parents how to manage the what, when, and where of feeding and trust their child to do the how much and whether of eating. Satter is the author of four best-selling, full-length books about feeding and eating, the producer of the Feeding with Love and Good Sense DVD series that shows what to doand not dowith feeding, is a sought-after speaker and consultant, and is content and programming director for the Ellyn Satter Institute.
