Pediatric eating disorders put a strain on parenthood. Hôpital Necker-Enfants malades has developed a therapeutic education program through parent groups: l'"Atelier des sens". This approach offers parents time to exchange ideas, using group facilitation tools, films and role-playing exercises.

The aim of this study was to report on the first sessions of this program.
Methods: The ATEP is designed in three sessions of five consecutive days, during school holidays over the year.
Background & Aims: Although nutritional care is a cornerstone in the management of pediatric intestinal failure (IF), little is known about feeding difficulty (FD) prevalence. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of FD and associated factors and to characterize eating behaviours in two pediatric IF rehabilitation centres (Hôpital-Necker Enfants Malades (NEM), France and Alberta Children's Hospital (ACH), Canada).
Methods: Parents of children (aged 1-18 years) on home parenteral nutrition (PN) for >3 months followed at NEM and ACH completed two validated tools: Montreal Children's Feeding scale for severity of FD, Child Eating Behaviour Questionnaire and a pediatric IF-specific questionnaire for FD associated risk factors.
