Red Flags. SOS Approach to Feeding. The SOS (Sequential Oral Sensory) Approach to Feeding program is an effective way to address problematic feeding behaviors in a variety of settings and populations. Parents and caregivers of children who will not eat are faced with a difficult and often puzzling challenge. Because the interplay between weight gain and a child’s experience of food can be complicated, there is rarely an easy solution when a feeding problem arises.
The SOS Approach uses a transdisciplinary team approach which assess the “whole child”: organ systems, muscles, development sensory, oral-motor, learning/behavior, cognition, nutrition and environment. The SOS Approach focuses on increasing a child’s comfort level by exploring and learning about the different properties of food and allows a child to interact with food in a playful, non-stressful way, beginning with the ability to tolerate the food in the room and in front of him/her; then moving on to touching, kissing, and eventually tasting and eating foods. Picky Eaters vs Problem Feeders. Top Ten Myths of Mealtime in America. Myth #1 = Eating is the Body’s number 1 priority. Why it is false Actually, breathing is the Body’s number 1 priority. Without good oxygenation, eating difficult because we shut off our airway briefly with every swallow and our oxygen level decreases slightly (or we have to significantly increase our respiratory rate to maintain oxygen such that we are burning off any calories we take in).
Postural stability (“not falling on your head”) is actually Body priority number 2. Eating is only Body priority number 3. If either breathing or postural stability are compromised, eating may be resisted. Myth #2 = Eating is instinctive. Eating is only an instinctive drive for the first month of life. Myth #3 = Eating is easy. Eating is the MOST complex physical task that human beings engage in.
Myth #4 = Eating is a two step process; 1 = you sit down, 2 = you eat. Myth #5 = It is not appropriate to touch or play with your food. Myth #6 = If a child is hungry enough, he/she will eat. Food is just food. Seven Ways to Help a Picky Eater with Autism | Family Services/Health and Wellness/Nutrition. Food choices of tactile defensive children. Received 23 September 2003; accepted 28 July 2004. Objective We explored whether tactile defensive children have picky eating habits because fussy or picky eaters are a general problem to parents and different health professionals.
Methods Children (n = 62) of both sexes, ages 3 to 10 y, were assigned to an experimental tactile defensive (TD) group (n = 29) or a control non-TD group (n = 33). Results This research confirmed that the eating habits and food choices of TD and non-TD children differ significantly. Conclusions Fussy or picky eaters should be evaluated more widely than to treat only the feeding problem.
