About this title

Synopsis

The principle of self-demand feeing--that children can regulate eating naturally by themselves, eating only when they are hungry--comes from Hirschmann's successful workshops. Parents who are at a loss on how to deal with their child's overeating, especially those who struggle with food themselves, will find useful, practical information.
