A very common concern among parents of children with autism is eating. In fact, it’s such a common concern that it’s become a diagnosis marker for the autism spectrum. Many parents want to pass healthy eating habits on to their children, but the limited diets their children prefer are causing severe malnourishment, weight gain or loss, and in some cases, impaired learning. The behavioral analyst approach is very different from the oral sensory motor approach, but whatever program you choose is not going to be very successful if the child isn’t tasting the food.

Dr. Mary Barbera. I fell into the autism world as an autism mom in 1999 when her first-born son, Lucas, was diagnosed with autism. Since then, she became a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst and best-selling author of The Verbal Behavior Approach. Since 2015, she’s created 3 autism online courses based on applied behavior analysis for professionals and "gung-ho" parents. Whether you’re looking for autism parenting strategies, working with developmental delays in children, or in search of autism help for professionals, I can encourage you to subscribe to the channel and join me on my journey. I’ll be providing weekly autism resources that you don’t want to miss.

My son wont eat anything. Literally. He wont let food anywhere near his mouth. Its hard finding feeding therapy around here. Hes 100% gtube fed so i dont worry about deficiencies because i control his food. I do a whole foods blenderized diet for him. But id give anything to see him eat a friggin French fry or chicken nugget.

Same with my twins who are also autistic. They literally eat the same 3 meals each and everyday and it’s so stressful!

My daughter only eats chips and peanut butter cereal. I give her green smoothie with vitamins so she will get the vitamins she needs, she don’t eat fruit or veggies

Thank you Mary for everything you do for us parents. I have watch your webinar today and purchased the book. My son is 3 still waiting for assessment but I’ve been working with him a lot myself. I’m polish and I’ve been talking to my son polish since he was born. We live in England so in the nursery they speak English. It seems to me English comes easier to him. He is not talking much just few words. Would you advise me to keep speaking polish or shall I stick to one language? I’ve recently purchased flash cards they are in English and not sure which language I should use to teach him now. I hope you could advise. Thank you 🙏

Thank you for purchasing my book! This is up to you, but I would recommend using English to teach him until he has at least 100+ words, then you can start teaching Polish words for things. I recommend English to start for your son only because that is the language used in the community and at school. We want to set our kids up for success.

Thank you, this was helpful to understanding vitamin deficiencies. Can you provide tips on how to solve picky eating? For example, my 5 year old has a very limited diet, what’s a fool proof way to add foods with vit. D and C?

My great-grandson is 9 and all he will eat are chicken nuggets, plain waffles, pizza, and sometimes bread and jelly. He drinks only water and chocolate milk and some juices.
