Eating is much more than just putting food into our mouths and swallowing. Likewise, feeding therapy is more than a focus of just what and how much a child eats. Feeding therapy requires participation of the child and family as active members of the team. The family’s mealtime habits and attitudes about food, the family’s and child’s food preferences, and the extended family and community as they impact the child’s eating are all examined as possibilities for growth and change.
