Coming up: Feeding 2E Children, Free Zoom Parent Education Workshop: Feeding 2E Children: Tuesday, November 9, 7PM-8PM | Register
Feeding kids is not easy, period, let alone gifted kids. If you throw in some 2e, well, the whole thing might be daunting, frequently devolving into a power struggle, and meal times are ruined for all.. "I will not eat it, it's too cold/spicy/green/they are touching/not crispy enough," is the bottom of the barrel. Try some, "I will not eat this as it was alive," "was my food sustainably sourced." And, sprinkle on some "I was busy with my project so I just forgot to eat," creative story telling, and so on… Not to mention, gifted food allergy and intolerance aka my child won’t eat their safe food. Nothing makes a parent feel worse than when they feel like they can’t even get food into their kid. Need some help? We got you covered. More info below.
Past workshop: Last month we hosted Sarah Ahlm, LCSW and Emily Clarke, LCSW of Nest Child and Family Therapy in Chicago, who presented very impressive strategies and tools to manage child anxiety in this complex population. If your child is struggling with anxiety, do give them a call.
