Problems with non eating ds

I am hoping some lovely mnetter will be able to help. I have searched through as many messages as I can without sending myself mad and I just can't find the link i'm after.
I remember reading a post about a dc who wouldn't eat and a book was recommended. There was also a link to an article somewhere in cyberspace about this and attitudes towards eating problems and approaching things from a different angle.
please does anyone remember something along these lines (hoping I didn't imagine it) or perhaps have any books to recommend to help me deal with this not eating problem my ds has.
Thanks!

well I don't know if it was the book you were thinking of but there is Mange Tout by Lucy someone (sorry not got it to hand)... it's aimed around getting kids to accept and try veg, but I've found the principles very useful for all aspects of eating.

Was it a thread where we were talking about the itv program about food phobia?

Not sure a book was recommended but here is the link for it.

Will look for threads with a book ref.

There's a book recommended on this thread.

I think Mangetout might be mentioned on the first thread I linked to. What a team we are Weegle

hi puddingchef,
if you do find a book on this subject would you let me know? I'm going through a similar prob with my 2 year old DS. Thanks!

Stop pandering to 'em.
They won't starve.
Put food out.
If they eat it, great. If not, remove with no comment.
Repeat.
