“…For example, theories such as the theory of planned behaviour (Ajzen, 1991) and trans theoretical model (Prochaska & DiClemente, 2005) help to understand why parents who report being motivated around providing healthy diets for their children may not carry out specific behaviours that result in implementation of these intentions. In addition, research has been carried out to explore and understand parenting practices specifically related to food (Gerards & Kremers, 2015; Gevers, Kremers, de Vries, & van Assema, 2014; Kiefner-Burmeister, Hoffmann, Meers, Koball, & Musher-Eizenman, 2014; Vaughn et al, 2016), which may provide a generalizable framework in which to understand some of the challenges parents face when trying to feed their children a healthy diet in an environment which may promote conflicting behaviours.…”

Objectives: There is a consistent body of evidence to demonstrate that obesity in very early childhood tends to continue into adolescence and through to adulthood. Parental practices in relation to food can have an effect on this trajectory, however existing studies reporting on interventions for treating obesity suggest there is a need to involve populations from demographically diverse backgrounds childhood obesity research. Design/Methods: A qualitative study was carried out using semi-structured interviews with parents in a deprived inner city area. Results: Although parents had good intentions towards providing a health diet for their chidren, a number of barriers emerged. Findings were reported in relation to the following themes: information and education; barriers (having a child with special needs, children’s food preferences and using food to promote desirable behaviour) and techniques (household rules & routines, setting limits and parameters, modelling and food preparation). Conclusion: Parents and carers would benefit from targeted interventions based on improving techniques around food parenting practices, with a focus on equipping parents with the skills to overcome barriers encountered not only in early childhood, but as children progress to school age and through to adolescence.

“…6 It is widely accepted that parents have an important role in the development of their children's eating habits and have considerable control over their diet. [7][8][9] However, more research exploring the mechanisms involved in parent feeding practices and children's eating behaviors is required to apply effective preventive interventions. 10,11 Parental control over children's eating behavior, such as pressuring children to eat and restricting the intake of palatable foods, have been associated with children's inability to regulate their own food intake.…”

“…These are relevant aspects that impact directly on the success of the treatment. According to the authors 11,[17][18][19][20] , dispute for control of food intake break the mealtimes and reduce the act of eating to an unpleasant moment for all those involved. This way, besides the sensory, motor and gastrointestinal aspects, for the effectiveness of the treatment of a child with feeding difficulties, it is necessary a broader view that considers and acts on the several aspects that interfere with the meal.…”

“…The family, as several authors 11,[17][18][19][20] report, exercise great influence on their children's eating habits and behaviors. Currently, some authors are already exploring the influence exerted by parenting styles in their children's eating behavior as well as they influence on the prognosis of the treatment of the feeding difficulties.…”

O presente artigo relata o caso clínico de paciente de dois anos e seis meses atendida por equipe multidisciplinar. A paciente apresentou dificuldades alimentares caracterizadas por recusa alimentar, tempo prolongado das refeições, defesa sensório-oral, reflexo de vômito anteriorizado e dificuldade mastigatória. Não se alimentava sozinha, nem participava das refeições em família. Apresentava refluxo gastroesofágico, alergia a proteína do leite de vaca e tosse seguida por vômito. Não apresentou comprometimento pondero-estatural. Foi utilizado o Programa de Refeição Compartilhada. Após acompanhamento médico, a conduta de trabalho foi definida e iniciada pelo trabalho sensório-oral, seguido do trabalho com a mastigação, associados ao trabalho de orientação familiar. A paciente passou a realizar as refeições com a família e participar das rotinas sociais de alimentação. O tempo de refeição foi reduzido e a recusa alimentar eliminada. Os aspectos sensório-motores-orais melhoraram significantemente. Após a alta e reavaliação em três meses, apresentou melhora no refluxo gastro-esofágico e a medicação foi suprimida. A nutricionista iniciou a introdução de derivados do leite, com boa aceitação por parte da paciente. O programa utilizado mostrou-se eficaz para o diagnóstico e tratamento da dificuldade alimentar apresentada pela paciente. A equipe multidisciplinar foi capaz de ter uma visão ampliada da dificuldade alimentar apresentada pela paciente, compreendendo as questões motoras, orais, orgânicas e nutricionais da alimentação da criança inseridas no seu contexto familiar.
