Adult RSS: Question on food issues

[Guest guest]

To those adult RSS people on the list:

Do you have " food " issues as an adult? I have a daughter, age 8 1/2, RSS and we

try not to make food a stuggle/point of argument with her at all. Is there

lingering effects in your life from everyone paying attention to what you were

eating/not eating? Anything your parents did that was good or bad regarding

your eating (especially once you were old enough to decide on your own what you

chose to eat...not infant/toddler stage)? If you had siblings, what way did

your parents allow/require your food needs to differ from brothers/sisters, and

was that a point of disagreement, and if so, how was it handled?

As a parent, you hear these stories about eating disorders and want to

definitely avoid them. Any feedback you have will be great. I, like others, am

encouraged to hear from you RSS adults, and am so glad you are doing well.

Thanks for being part of this group.
