[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom is like this. She was like this when we were kids. I grew up in an affluent neighborhood, my parents had plenty of money, but I was always hungry. I can remember going to people's houses and finding out that they had things like left overs and family style meals where you could choose how much you ate, and being amazed. In my family, my mother would buy exactly what she thought we should eat for the week. So, if we were having chicken on Tuesday she'd buy 5 chicken drumsticks, one for each family member, and 5 small rolls, and measure out exactly 5 1/2 cups of frozen vegetables. She'd boast about how her kids always cleaned their plates, but that was because we were hungry!! [/quote] This is so sad.[/quote] Did your mom grow up in poverty, or have an eating disorder? I have a relative like this, and she has both (poverty in childhood & an eating disorder). [/quote]
