[quote=Anonymous]And, her follow up post is here. https://www.kartiniclinic.com/blog/post/selective-eating-revisited/ You will see more parent descriptions of children's eating that will sound a lot like your step son. There aren't a lot of treatments that have evidence behind them (i.s. studies have been carried out with controlled variables, etc., and published in medical journals) to treat this disorder. There are people trying to treat it using trial and error -- Duke University seems to have a good program in my experience. But if your step son is actually gaining weight and is healthy and has energy, I don't think you'd want to invest that kind of time and money. The people who do that usually have kids who don't eat anything AND are failing to thrive. There's a good book out there but more geared to younger children: http://www.amazon.com/Helping-Child-Extreme-Picky-Eating/dp/162625110X[/quote]
