Aston UniversityAug 12 2024 Young children often display similar eating behavior as their parents, with a parent's own eating style influencing how they feed their children, research at Aston University has shown.
A team led by Professor Jacqueline Blissett in the School of Psychology and Aston Institute of Health and Neurodevelopment at Aston University, asked parents to assess their own eating behavior and looked for associations between those behaviors and those of their children. The direct links between child and parent behavior were particularly clear in parents with avid or avoidant eating behaviors, whose children tended to have similar eating behavior. Parents who had avid or emotional eating styles were more likely to use food to soothe or comfort a child, who then in turn displayed avid or emotional eating traits.
