As a former anorexia sufferer, I am appalled by this article.
My daughter also suffers from anorexia, which started at the same age as mine did.
True experts tell us that genetics and personality traits are two of the major factors that cause ED.
"Boundary issues"?
I can tell you that I myself never experienced any of the things that you talk about - boundary issues, nor abuse nor sexual molestation.
My parents were very loving, as I was a loving parent to my daughter.
This article does more harm than good to sufferers and their families/loved ones.
This does not surprise, however, since I have encountered many 'misguided' therapists over the years.
I hope the professionals take this author to task on this one.
