Answer to Question 1

A
The education plan should be built around the concept that self-demand feeding in children promotes adaptive eating regulation responses. This is often difficult to accept for parents who have acquired maladaptive eating regulation responses or who believe various myths about feeding.

The hypothalamus is responsible for regulation of metabolism, temperature, and emotions.
