“…Some programs for mothers with EDs and their toddlers delivered in a dyadic or parents‐group setting have been proposed (Bryant‐Waugh, Turner, Jones, & Gamble, ; Runfola et al., ; Stein, Woolley, Senior, et al, ) and produced an improvement in parental self‐efficacy and parenting competence. However, these programs mostly focused on mothers (for a comprehensive study considering the role of fathers, see Sadeh‐Sharvit, Zubery, Mankovski, Steiner, & Lock, ). Moreover, the results of this study have clinical implications because they demonstrated that parents with BED cannot be treated as a homogeneous group.…”

This study examines psychopathological problems in children of parents with binge eating disorder (BED), particularly the effect of parental diagnosis on their offspring's psychopathology and the mediating power of the quality of parent-infant feeding interactions. Two hundred parents and their offspring were administered a questionnaire for the assessment of their children's psychopathology at 18 (T1) and 36 (T2) months of age. An observational measure to evaluate feeding interactions was administered at T1. Children with both parents with BED showed the highest affective, anxiety, oppositional/defiant, and autism spectrum problems, but no influence of paternal diagnosis was found on the offspring's psychopathology. Maternal BED had an influence on children's affective and autism spectrum problems, and diagnosis of BED in both parents had an effect on infants' affective problems. Paternal BED had an effect on oppositional/defiant problems through the quality of father-infant interactions, and maternal BED had an effect on the offspring's affective and anxiety problems through the mediation of mother-infant interactions. These results suggest the importance of intervention programs focusing both on parental psychopathology and on mother-child and father-child feeding interactions in families with parents with BED.

“…Forty participants (43.48%) attended both sessions and completed posttest surveys. Despite a lower retention rate than desired for the posttest component, the sample in this study ( n = 40) is comparable and/or higher than samples found in similar research implementing psychoeducational prevention programs with parents using a one-group, uncontrolled, pretest–posttest design (Brown, 2016; Sadeh-Sharvit et al, 2016).…”

Confident Body, Confident Child (CBCC) is a parenting program designed to enhance knowledge of ways to promote body appreciation and sustainable health habits in 2- to 6-year-old children. Following a randomized controlled trial in Australia, the current study explores the international applicability of CBCC with the first pilot trial in the United States. Using an uncontrolled pretest–posttest design, this study examines (a) parental knowledge, (b) weight bias internalization, and (c) body appreciation among parents before and after program participation. A total of 13 CBCC programs were conducted for parents ( n = 92 baseline; n = 40 pretest–posttest). Findings support CBCC as a means to increase parents’ levels of knowledge around body image across countries and across cultures and are discussed for practice implications and future research with diverse populations.

“…Parent‐Based Prevention following Bariatric Surgery targets key parental cognitions and behaviors associated with known risk factors for the development of obesity, including parental feeding practices as well as children’s eating behaviors, sleep habits, physical activity, and stress levels (Clark et al, 2007; Sadeh‐Sharvit & Lock, 2018; Sadeh‐Sharvit et al, 2016), while also preventing risk associated with eating disorders. As part of this process, the program works to reduce child exposure to maladaptive parental modeling of unhealthy eating patterns, appearance‐based comments, and weight bias on the family (Densham et al, 2017; Zuba & Warschburger, 2017).…”

Parenting after Weight Loss Surgery: A Conceptual Model and Two Case Reports

et al. 2019

The ways families approach eating, shape, and weight can result in stress for individual family members and challenge the overall functioning of the family. This is further complicated among families with a parent who has history of obesity or undergone weight loss surgery (WLS). Although WLS can positively impact other family members, it can also exacerbate conflicts regarding feeding and weight. Such conflicts can involve uncertainty regarding the extent to which the entire family should make the dietary changes recommended for the post-WLS parent. Conflict might also center on the appropriate level of concern regarding the children's risk of developing (or maintaining) obesity. This paper uses two case examples to describe the application of a specialized, time-limited intervention: Parent-Based Prevention following Bariatric Surgery (PBP-B). The program was developed to address the unique challenges and concerns that arise after, or are exacerbated by, WLS. Each detailed case example illustrates a common child-feeding challenge and the employment of key PBP-B strategies throughout the course of treatment. In the first case, the parent who had undergone WLS believed the family's current eating behaviors were the same as those that had led to her own overeating, obesity, and co-occurring psychiatric symptoms, while her husband disagreed. In the second case, both parents were concerned about their son's weight, yet due to their prior eating histories, they felt unable to construct boundaries around the feeding experience. Both cases follow families through the entire intervention and illustrate key points and challenges. These cases underscore the need for novel treatment modalities to support families following parental WLS.
