Praise for the Ellyn Satter Institute’s work
“What is nothing short of miraculous is hearing a child with a phobia of food ask what I’m cooking and to remark about how good it smells, or take a green pepper ring and turn it into glasses or a mustache. When he feels ready, he tries new foods. For everyone in this family, for the first time in years, there is something better than fear on our table. We have hope.”
Skye
(father of two)
“Every day, as a pediatric dietitian, I listen to parents’ stories of picky eating, fights around the table, and emotional roller coasters at mealtime. I myself struggled for 3 years to feed a child labeled as “failure to thrive.” We put him on a hospital-based protocol, forcibly placing food in his mouth. When he sank below 5th percentile for weight, I took the risk to begin division of responsibility. Within 4 months, he was at 25th percentile. By age 8, he was at 45th. I now help other parents accept their children and their eating styles for what they are. “
Maria
(parent and dietician)
“My busy 2-year-old boy has become a child who eagerly eats a variety of foods and will eat most everything we prepare for him. Our friends are amazed at how pleasant he is at the table. I am so thankful for the joy and relaxation we are able to experience at our family meals, and I know it is due to the fact that we are following Ellyn’s philosophy.”
