By the way, telling a child to eat until the plate's empty is very wrong. It teaches kids to ignore their stomach telling them when they're full.

[I agree and disagree in the same motion. I agree that forcing a child to finish a plate full and making them gorge them selves is wrong.. but for a finnaky child like I was it was the only way that I would actually eat anything.. I have always left a little mouthful for the gods, but mum drew the line at eating a mouthfull and leaving a plate full..

I don't know if I agree with that.
His mum did consult doctors but no-one else offered her help, so it doesn't seem that a doctor referred him to a health visitor/social services who could have monitored and worked with them.
Apparently he's had some success in losing weight but she obviously needs help to progress, especially if she thinks he'll starve himself if he isn't offered his preferred alternative to healthy food, which is of course unlikely.

I genuinely believe that if a doctor, health visitor or social worker had explained to her why he wouldn't starve and supported her in changing his diet, she would have felt more confident about not only doing it, but continuing to do it.
It's a really simple solution to you and I but it is easy when you know how.
I'm just saying that, rather than all this fuss, she just needed a little education

Doc, I really hope that post wasn't directed at me.
It did seem as if it was as you included my mention of "education" a lot: quite sarcastically, I thought.
