I am so glad to have found this site. I have my own picky eating issues, which have abated a bit over the years but still are there to some measure. But my 12 year old son definitely falls into the SED category and it is incredibly frustrating. I worry about his health (although his doctor says he's fine/will be fine), and his growth (he is small). But mostly I worry about the social implications. It's hard for him to be at parties, and people (mostly relatives) do not understand the situation and put a lot of pressure on him to "just try it", not understanding that it's beyond that. I'm hoping to find coping support here more than any fixes.
