Title : A psychotherapeutic understanding of eating disorders in children and young people

I shall present ways of  thinking about the needs of premature twins in hospital. I shall illustrate important factors to consider when separating premature twin siblings and look at obstacles to mental health to be eliminated in their hospitalisation. Also included will be emotional factors promoting eating disorders  and other disturbances in these twin siblings.
