Yes he is disappointed about the teacher training interview, but he's dealing with it brilliantly. In between the huge amount of studying he is doing for his Master's Degree he's keeping an eye out for job opportunities. He has also submitted an application to UCAS for various teacher training opportunities whether in-school training or the more traditional college route.
Last night he and I went out for a belated Mothers Day meal and he ordered a large pizza with two extra toppings. When we got home he had his usual evening-long snacks - a seemingly endless supply of cereal, dried fruit and bits and pieces.
Today he has his usual friends up in his room for a massive table top war games battle (Warhammer) and it's very noisy! Just like it used to be in the 'old days'.
Plus, he is about to learn how to drive (he has been putting it off for ages but now realises he will need it in order to broaden his career options).
Life is pretty normal, really. Nothing major to report with regard to eating worries or anything like that.
All in all it's Good News!
Want information on eating disorders in boys? Worried your son has an eating disorder? What are the signs of eating disorders in boys? In 2009 my 15-year-old son developed anorexia. Now aged 31 and with a MSc in Psychology he is recovered & working in mental health using his experiences to help others. I help to raise awareness of eating disorders in boys, point parents to helpful resources & talk about how eating disorders can traumatise families.
