[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I swear old people just do NOT remember what it is like to be breastfeeding or have five year olds or yadda yadda yadda....[/quote] Nah. I think this is a personality thing and partly cultural. I come from a culture where way too much food is prepared and shared at gatherings or for guests. I had a real culture shock when I attended my first WASP party.[/quote] I'm a pp whose brother ordered the pizza for the 5 year old twins My mom's family was lower middle class, Boston Irish-Catholic. Her mom LOVED feeding people. My favorite memories of my grandmother (her mom) involve tea and some type of cookies/scones/baked goods every afternoon when we visited her. No one ever went hungry in her house, even when she was in her 80's. But my mom is kind of a snob and felt superior to her lower middle class upbringing so maybe going against that (feeding guests) is her way of rebelling. [/quote]
