[quote=Anonymous]My mother and MIL could not be more different (I'm GenX.) Baked goods are my absolute weakness and every meal has a dessert attached to it at MILs and you get looked at strangely if you don't have it. I've had a lot of practice being politely assertive and looking MIL dead in eye "Thank you, but I'm full"/"not going to have any" and it frankly annoys me all the food. And I'm overweight right now! Mother always talked about having just a bite of dessert, looking matronly, etc. I kind of agree with the comment it may be an UMC thing to. College access, being a good size/thin, being pretty, access to money and therefore healthier food - these are all things. Even at my child's day care a teacher keeps saying "Hi pretty girl" to her and it both tickles and then annoys me. [/quote]
