[quote=Anonymous]My guess is this is a combination of factors. Maybe host isn’t providing quite enough food for the hungry teens and perhaps has things in the fridge and pantry that their parents don’t buy at home? As well as an issue with manners for the guests. By now they should know how much food will be on offer. My husband and son are both athletes and like food (and are both very fit). We have friends who are all very petite and do not eat much at all. We know if we are going to a meal at their house then husband and son eat a meal at home first :-). It is not reasonable to expect these friends of ours to feed us the quantities spouse eats at home. And I also take a large appetizer or side to their gatherings. But this sounds like OP’s in laws are telling their kids “ok, afternoon bbq is your lunch and supper - eat up!” [/quote]
