[quote=Anonymous]Maybe the mother is old-fashioned and wants what [b]she thinks[/b] is the best for her daughter.    If the daughter has a husband who is a good provider and two kids.  The daughter seems unable to hold a job. When the mother sees her daughter packing on such an unhealthy amount of weight, she is obviously concerned that it is going to negatively impact her daughter.

If mom is sensing that the son-in-law seems to be withdrawn from her daughter, then she will try and figure out what the reason may be.  The obvious reason seems to be her daughters obesity to the mother.

She may be fearful that if the husband leaves the daughter or start seeing someone else, her daughter will suffer and the grandkids will suffer from a broken family.

As a mom she should intervene.  Maybe, do this discreetly and lovingly.  Find out what is eating the daughter that she is eating so much. Ask how she can help the daughter so that she can shed the weight. Maybe help with baby sitting or meals preperation.

Obviously, the daughter is unable to reverse the weight gain because mentally she is not at a place to do it.  The mom needs to help her daughter and not judge her.  But, the fear of the mom is very reasonable. [/quote]
