[quote=Anonymous]Is it like this year round or just when school starts? It's stressful having to eat breakfast without having time to digest it because of an early start time. Then there often isn't time to eat lunch. With social anxiety, he probably can't relax enough to eat much or might be nauseous. Can you get him involved in grocery shopping with you or choosing what to pack for lunch? My DD is similar but if she gets to choose what to buy at the store, she'll be more likely to eat it. And even if he can't eat much, staying hydrated during the school day is important. So maybe start with making sure he drinks enough and make sure there aren't any problems with him using the bathroom at school in case he's purposely not drinking. He could be pee shy too. [/quote]
