[quote=Anonymous]If you want to see your parents, you're going to have to deal. They're not going to change. Either be the bad guy all week and say no to things when grandma/grandpa have already said yes or go so far as to remove food from in front of him. Or let it go for a week, knowing you/he'll have to work that much harder when vacation is over. Personally I'd do a combo of both. Traditional ethnic people are like this and they aren't going to change. In their view all of their other kids/grandkids were raised on this food and have turned out fine, so who is some dr. to say that lifestyle doesn't work. Not saying ALL ethnic folks are like this -- some view the doctor's word as the will of God -- but many ARE like your parents and getting them to change is nearly impossible.[/quote]
