A Happy Discipline

Auteur

Elizabeth Cummings studied Psychology and Business Studies at Edinburgh university before becoming a primary school teacher. She has travelled and lived overseas most of her adult life and now lives with her husband and two daughters in Coogee in Sydney.
Throughout her working life, and in recent times in her personal life, Elizabeth has worked and supported families living with the trauma of health issues including those associated with eating disorders. Currently there is little literature geared towards the direct empowerment of siblings of Eating Disorder sufferers and this book is aimed at providing a platform by which discussion may be started in a guided environment to help young children understand the nature of an Eating Disorder illness. As well as this Elizabeth hopes that this story might help families identify how the whole family is needed to help their loved one on the long road of their recovery to full health.
