Abstract
AbstractWilksch (2023) uses survey data to characterize the perspective of caregivers of children who have undergone treatment for an eating disorder. With this framework, the author presents an evocative view of both the challenges these parents experience in acquiring needed specialty treatment, as well as the negative impact that the caregiving role may have on their own well‐being. Altogether, this Forum underscores the unquestionable importance of not overlooking the practical and emotional needs of caregivers of youth with eating disorders, and presents a compelling call to action for our field to better support parents who navigate treatment for these challenging illnesses.
