[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think sometimes it’s older people.  My parents always had a ton of food 24/7. My brother in his 30s is currently staying with them and my mother called me, shocked, because they ate dinner on Christmas Eve at 2 and he was hungry again at 7. She couldn’t believe he could eat again because my parents were so stuffed.

I told her this was normal and how they used to be. They really don’t remember. I also gently reminded them how I took the kids out to eat mid day when we visited because they needed lunch and couldn’t go from breakfast to dinner.

If you are visiting relatives, always have your own car. My advice and hard lesson learned. [/quote]

This is why I refuse to visit my in-laws ever again after the first time.  They insisted we stay with them and insisted we not rent a car, and implied that it would be insulting to them if we did not stay with them and allow them to take care of all of our needs, including transportation.  So we were stuck in their house with no car for a week, and aside from no food there was NO COFFEE OR ALCOHOL.  [/quote]
