[quote=Anonymous]NP. My mom pulled this on her last visit, which was over 4 years ago because we have not invited her back for a host of reasons. My mom expects to be fully hosted every hour of the day like it’s a European river cruise. When my DD was 3 weeks old and I was bedridden, she brought the 36 hour old flowers from the vase in her room to me to let me know they were wilting and that I should probably put in fresh ones, and then asked what was for lunch. She’s also the type to barely eat dinner and make a big show of not being hungry and saying that she really just doesn’t need much food, but only after she’s had first breakfast when she wakes up, second breakfast when we wake up, a “light morning snack”, an “early lunch because that’s what I’m used to”, real lunch with the rest of us, and cocktail hour. By day 4 or 5 of visiting she always feels unwell, probably because of eating the 6 meals/day that she expects.[/quote]
