About Off The C.U.F.F.: A Parent Skills Book For The
This self-help manual is what is used to help parents gain skills and understanding to help manage their child's eating disorder. It is the basis of the parent support and skills program from the Duke Center for Eating Disorders. This manual is intended to accomplish four basic goals. First, it gives parents tools to manage moment-to-moment difficulties that arise when they are trying to nourish a child with disordered eating. Second, it gives parents strategies to prevent burn-out and increase their social support. Third, it helps parents figure out how disordered eating symptoms may be helping their child to manage difficult situations and feelings. In turn, parents can then provide their children with healthy strategies that can replace these disordered eating symptoms and help their children to flourish. Finally, it helps parents to be role models of responsive self-parenting, something that their children are not very good at (and that we all could use some help with!). The program covers all sorts of topics: perfectionism, emotion awareness, family communication – fun stuff! While this may all sound challenging, my intention is that this manual presents skills in ways that seem very manageable: straight-forward, hopeful, and a little corny. I hope you find it useful and wish the best for you and your family. All royalties from this book go to fund eating disorder research. -Nancy Zucker, Director of the Duke Center for Eating Disorders
