The Art of Low Demand Parenting: Food

The Art of Low Demand Parenting: Food

Does your child refuse to eat at the table? Do they have a limited diet, and the more you insist they eat their greens, the harder mealtimes become? Do you have battles over food, and wish that you weren't?

Do you look at other children tucking into stews and stirfries and wonder where it all went wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong. You've got the wrong tools. For some children, most of the techniques of mainstream parenting just don't work, and can often make things worse. You need a low demand approach.

Dr Naomi Fisher and Eliza Fricker will help you change the way you approach food to focus more on connection and less on conflict. They'll explain why mainstream approaches aren't working for you, and give you some practical alternatives.

Eliza's original and witty illustrations will bring the whole thing to life. You'll feel a connection with other families. You will realise that you aren't alone and that there is a better way.

WARNING: This is not a webinar on how to force your child to eat their vegetables. Look elesewhere for that.


Comments from participants from previous webinars

  • Thank you both so much for this excellent webinar. It is so good to be validated in the way we are parenting our PDA child, and to be reminded of the basics and the benefits. The REACH acronym is great - I liked that you talked about these things as 'a way of being' rather than 'a set of strategies' - I think that's my biggest take home from this. I also really appreciated your real-life experiences as examples of the REACH principles. Clear, simple points on each slide, and fantastic illustrations from Eliza, as always!
  • Thank you for appreciating the reality of the situation for parents. It really means a lot to know that there are professionals out there who really ‘get it’ and who are working so proactively to offer appropriate support and advocate for us.
  • I found your presentation both hugely informative and surprisingly comforting - there is a lot to be said for knowing you are not alone, that there are people out there who understand.
  • This is one of the best courses I have been on. The voice of reason and over 200 parents thinking “I feel heard”.
