Popis:	The author examined parents' views of their daughters' recovery from Anorexia Nervosa (AN). Semistructured interviews were conducted with 10 mothers, 8 fathers, 9 recovered anorectics, and 1 sibling. Analyses revealed a grounded theory consisting of 4 phases arising from 13 substantive codes. The phases are reacting, acting, maintaining, and preventing. Within the reacting phases the substantive codes are struggling to understand, recognizing lack of knowledge, fearing angry responses, and realizing it is a family problem. The acting phase codes are preparing, confronting, and turning point. The substantive codes within the maintaining phase are accepting, making changes, and being flexible, and within the preventing phase the codes are cluingin strategies, self-esteem building, and educating. A core theme, “awakening,” involving psychological and social variables, was found within all phases.
