[quote=Anonymous]My tween DD has always been a very good eater - variety and quantity - but lately she has started refusing to eat. I’ve pretty much ignored it as long as she is doing what she’s supposed to and seems to be in a good mood otherwise. The problem is that she gets super grouchy when she’s hungry, so it can get to a bad cycle quickly where she gets mad because she’s hungry and then refuses to eat because she’s mad. I don’t know how to manage it because I don’t want to do anything to contribute to disordered eating, and while I can force her to sit at a table with food in front of her, I can’t force feed her. I feel like she’s basically making herself miserable for no reason. I’m sure her growth is slowing, so her appetite might be decreasing naturally, but she is and has always been very thin, and I don’t want this to impact her health. Anyone else go through this? What did you do? Should I talk to her pediatrician?[/quote]
