[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 404354, member: 2423"] The only thing I would add to this discussion is that I'm not sure Jen's daughter is doing this consciously. I consider her lack of eating a maladaptive coping strategy -- instead of melting down, she's shutting down. She needs to be taught new coping strategies, much the way Ross Greene teaches lacking skill sets in his book [I]The Explosive Child[/I]. "Children do well if they can," Greene writes, not if they want to. Similarly, children explode or implode not because they want to or choose to, but because they lack the skills to develop adaptively. [/QUOTE]
