[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We are in a bubble with my inlaws. It’s FIL. He’s mid 60’s and perfectly capable of serving himself and waiting his turn. He also has a wife capable of waiting on him if that’s their thing. I just need a response to make him stop asking me. I don’t care if he asks someone else. [/quote] My FIL has a touch of this. My main tactic would be to immediately turn to my DH and say "DH, your father would like X" and then I'd move along while doing nothing. If I was cornered and DH wasn't around I'd do the following: During the buffet line I'd just say "Once I'm done with the kids plates". Or during the table passing I'd say "shrimp is on it's way" and ignore the out stretched plate.[/quote]
