[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not sure why your son not eating her food has to do with him wanting u to loan them money. On the money, he probably knows he would struggle to pay you back so no point pretending its a loan. If you can afford to help him and you feel so inclined then help him/them. I dont think you have any obligation though.

Your teen son should not be taking his own food to their house, he needs to eat what they are making within reason. I mean I wouldnt make my kid eat liver and onions but if she is going to a house that serves Indian for example my kid would eat some naan bread and a chicken or veggie dish as long as not spicy.[/quote]

Funny you should mention liver and onions. She does indeed make that dish  :lol: And a lot of other very carb-heavy dishes that my kid just doesn't eat. Her food is not healthy, it's very heavy. And having seen her kids a few times, I am not surprised they are overweight.
 I'd rather he not go hungry, so I am OK packing his food. This way she doesn't have to cook separately for him. I thought I was being considerate to her, esp. with 3 kids now, but she still got offended.

I can afford to help him but for how long? He can't give me a timeline. I am surprised he is not interviewing given his skillset AND a clearance, which is a lot in this area.[/quote]
