“Feeding is a metaphor for the parent/child relationship overall,” says Ellyn Satter, author of How to Get Your Kid to Eat … But Not Too Much. Satter stresses her “Golden Rule” of parenting: parents are responsible for what is presented to eat and the manner in which it is presented. Children are responsible for how much or even whether they eat. Early chapters describe basic feeding principals. Satter then stresses ways to develop and maintain normal eating patterns from birth through adolescence, and provides solid information (and information on “solids”) to both empower and relieve all parents worried about how their child eats. Later sections focus on feeding problems, obesity, special needs children, and eating disorders. How to Get Your Kid to Eat … But Not Too Much may be the most sensible and accessible book on childhood feeding on the market.

The advice in this book is solid and appropriate for most kids. However, the writer’s attitude is judgmental. If you are buying this book, it’s probably because your child’s eating has not gone as smoothly as you’d like. For most of us, a lot of our parental self-esteem is wrapped up in this issue. So it just makes no sense to act as if it’s usually the parent’s fault – why alienate and beat up your target audience???? Plus, while I’m sure that some parents contribute to kids’ eating issues, plenty of kids are just born more sensitive! If you can read between the lines and get to the take home message without letting her attitude get to you, more power to you – otherwise, go elsewhere.

The book was so cheap compared to ordering it brand new! The condition of the book was excellent for being used! And I received it sooner than I thought that I would! Will order again from them!
