[quote=Anonymous]Can you just not give her a heads up about the cheese and cracker snack you're about to enjoy? If you wake up first, serve yourself breakfast? When she flips out and wants to take over your plate ( or your kid's plain fruit), give that behavior an honest reaction- be surprised, confused and tell her you're just fine, thanks and continue on as a normal person eating her snack. If she mopes around, continue to be perplexed and confused. Ask her if she's okay, if she says yes, drop it. It she wants you to eat more of something, say you're full and clear your plate from the table. I think you all tiptoe ing around her issues, indulging her desire for control over your food, and accommodating her just exacerbates the problem. It's not normal, so no need to treat her illness as if it is.[/quote]
