[quote=Anonymous]This is not behavior related specifically to ADHD. This is a family food issue. I would set some ground rules about what is a snack and what is dessert. Sit down together and go over it. Make her a part of generating a list of snacks and what an appropriate amount is. Post it on the fridge and include the times. For example, after lunch, but before dinner she can have unlimited fruits and vegetables and/or 2 cheese sticks or one baggie of pretzels...etc. Set rules that eating has to happen at the table. There is no eating in bedrooms or the family room. Only at the table. Ice cream is not on the list of snacks. But after dinner, she can choose one of the items from the dessert list. [/quote]
