Eating Disorders

Understanding an eating disorder can be difficult for families.  Although the focus is on food, weight and shape, there is often other underlying issues being masked by the eating disorder.   An eating disorder is a serious mental health illness and can have significant physical and emotional effects. The beginning of adolescence and late teens are peak periods for kids to experience their first symptoms and both males and females of any age or background may be affected. 

In this edition of SchoolTV, parents will learn what warning signs to look for and what can be done in the prevention of an eating disorder. We hope you take time to reflect on the information offered in this month’s edition and we always welcome your feedback.
