["L'Atelier des sens": Parenting group for children with eating disorders].

Abstract

Pediatric eating disorders put a strain on parenthood. Hôpital Necker-Enfants malades has developed a therapeutic education program through parent groups: l'"Atelier des sens". This approach offers parents time to exchange ideas, using group facilitation tools, films and role-playing exercises. The parents work on understanding their children's eating difficulties, while the children make progress on sensory issues, accompanied by a chef.
