[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you give him big meal when he gets home from school?[/quote] Yes. He will eat a big meal when he gets home. And then a good-sized meal for dinner. And then gets always himself a snack before bed. Plenty of vegetables, etc. And loves treats, too, of course; we’ve never been restrictive about foods. But not eating during the day and then going straight from class to sport? Not going to cut it. He’s a strong kid who’s growing very quickly right now and needs more calories and hydration throughout the day. I know we need to keep him chipping away at anxiety management, and he is working on it. I just don’t want to make things worse somehow.[/quote] A lot of kids don't eat in school. I think you are making a bigger deal over this than you ned to. If he is eating a meal when he gets home and dinner plus snacks this is not an eating disorder. If you are taking him to the sports, have a meal ready in the car.[/quote]
