[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since OP seems to have a hard time accepting that she is wrong in her stubborn way, or, for that matter, that picking a fight with a 12 year old is beyond childish of her, I'll try to explain to her the outcomes of two choices she has.
Stick to her making the boy see the light and forcing him to eat what she cooks...
"Grandpa's wife is nasty, rude, and made me red cabbage that was stinky and gross, and when I said no, she called me a spoiled brat and forbid grandpa to take me out for ice cream. I hate her! (add a lot of preteen imagined drama and embellished retelling of how mean she was to him.)
Or,
"I wish you were more like grandpa's wife. She made me pizza every day, and made the best deserts with ice cream. She took me grocery shopping my first day and let me choose all the food I wanted to eat! Why can't you be more like her?!"[/quote]

Aww, this just reminded me of the shopping trips I took with my grandma when I stayed with her in the summer. Usually my cousin was staying with her grandma at the same time and the four of us would go up and down every aisle of the small town grocery store.
