It is important that parents know how to act in cases when anorexia or bulimia affect their children.
To deal with this difficult situation, it is essential to have a strong family environment and follow these behavioural guidelines:
- Parents should decide the daily menu.
- Vary the menu, for better food.
- Eating together is essential.
- Ignore comments or objections regarding the amount of food to be eaten.
Don’t feel guilty about this problem. The most important thing is that all family members understand the situation and tackle it together.
