Feeding for the child with cerebral palsy - Source

ADAPTED FLOOR SEATING
If your child cannot sit by himself on the floor or on a chair, placing him in one of
the following positions may be helpful.
If your child has not learnt to sit by himself
without support, then seat him
against the wall and place a floor table
in front of him. The table will give him
support from the front.
if the floor table does not give enough
support, your child may still tend to fall
sideways. In this case, a cut-out table
will be more comfortable. It will fit
around his chest and also give support
to his elbows. i
If your child needs more support, then
make her sit in the corner of a room on
a cushion or on a rolled up blanket.
Place a floor table or a cut-out table in
front of her to provide additional support.
