Wow that is horrible.. you can preach at her until she's blue in the face,, but she may not stop, ya know what it's like to please your parents.. well her situation sounds like 100 times worse... I would try your best to convince her to at least take vitamin suppliments... and protein bars atleast once a day.. you can also convince her to eat nothing but fruit and veggies... at least she's getting nutrients, and a lot a lot of water... don't tell her she HAS to eat.. chances are, that will give her more to think about, and stress and eat less.... maybe say "well atleast eat all the veggies and fruit you want.. they are freebies, no fat or calories." and protein bar every day for muscle... that's what I would try, but it's a tough and touchy subject.. I hope she does ok, and realizes that there is SO much more to life, then pleasing your mommy and daddy..
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
