[quote=Anonymous]This thread is useful for me because I never thought about my mom as a perfectionist, she is actually a hoarder, but she does have OCD. No eating imperfect foods! I remember how my brother and I went to a birthday party and started stuffing our pockets with cookies... I now have some food issues due to always having to eat healthy. I am not close to my parents at all. I am too lenient in food for my kid, too, and at the same time worried about his weight. The kicker is that when I was 18, my mom completely let go and I was allowed to do whatever I wanted which also wasn’t healthy. But god forbid I am in a difficult situation, no help, just reproach for acting without thinking yadda yadda yadda. I wish mom sought help. She is a complete wreck now at 60. [/quote]
