The Parent Venture: What Should Parents Know? Eating Disorders Rising in Children and Teens

Rates of eating disorders in children and teens have skyrocketed during the pandemic. Explanations for rising rates may include a loss of familiar routines and regular connections with friends, anxiety about COVID-19, boredom, and food insecurity at home. What should parents, caregivers, and educators know? Join Avery Carter Walker, PhD, an eating disorders expert from Stanford Children's Health, Lucille Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford, to learn more.
