(is it physiological or psychological)?
Thank you for your replies. :)
I could be one or the other, or both. It is very common for children in care to eat more than their stomachs can handle therefore either causing involuntary vomiting, or having to induce vomiting to relieve discomfort.
If he is getting attention when he vomits, that could be additional cause for the reaction.
With children who were deprived food, or didn't know when/where their next meal would be, they usually eat to the point of sickness to feel full. It takes a lot of time and structure to curb those tendencies. These are the same kids that sleep in front of the fridge and open cabinets and fridges to the point of obsession to check for food.
Are you looking to adopt these children or were you part of the panel choosing their family? Or are we talking two completely different boys here? Sorry my brain isn't functioning, too much sun today!
