[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lilly is the jerk, lashing out and accusing friend of being “superior” after friend’s comment.

Megan is at worst socially inappropriate, making an observation out loud that a lot of food was being thrown out (although I understand Lilly “heard” “YOU’RE wasting food” or something to the effect of being judged).

But it doesn’t make Megan a jerk - it sounds like she was making an accurate observation if it was party food.

How do you feel when someone observes you wouldn't be so fat if at less and exercised more?  What about observing your DH's hair has really thinned and he should cut it shorter since longer hair doesn't look good on him any more?  How about observing your DC is unlikely to make the sports team since they really aren't as good at sports as you think they are?

Isn't one of the first things we teach out kids about interacting with others that just because something is accurate doesn't mean it needs to be said aloud. [/quote]

+1 I have no doubt those who don't think Megan was out of line would be singing a different tune if it was their MIL saying this to them.[/quote]
