Eating disorders are complex conditions that affect how children think about food, their bodies, and self-worth. These disorders often involve extreme eating habits, such as avoiding meals, binge eating, or purging. A child struggling with an eating disorder might show signs of excessive concern about weight, engage in restrictive dieting, or develop an unhealthy relationship with exercise. If left untreated, these conditions can lead to serious physical and emotional health issues.
