Okay, I love her, but she drives me NUTS sometimes. I don't understand her thinking sometimes. Jon and I were over for dinner and he'd had a big lunch so he wasn't hungry. I told him "Don't eat if you aren't hungry." (He's overweight, he's been running and trying to be healthy now) Well, his mom and I are eating and he's in the living room on the computer and his mom yells at him to go eat. He says "Krysta said not to, are you overruling her?" She said "Yes, you have to listen to her about everything else, but not about food." That's not an exact quote, I can't remember exactly but it was along those lines. So I'm sitting there SO irritated, and then Jon gets up and makes a plate.
Okay, first of all, understand all I want is for Jon to be healthy. I love him. But he is bad about food. If we buy a meal at a restaurant he thinks he has to eat ALL of it because he paid for it. He definitely has a problem and his mother doesn't help at all. When we eat with her, she'll give him half her meal too! I know it's Jon's responsibility to say no, but she doesn't help the situation. His dad had his first heart attack when he was 35! Jon is almost 28! His brother and his dad are both overweight. I don't want Jon to have a heart attack ever! Especially not that young.
What's even more irritating is she tells me she's concerned about his health! Obviously not, if she forces him to have dinner when he's not hungry!
Anyway when we were leaving I told Jon in the car that he DOES have to listen to me about food. And probably should EVER listen to his mom about that because she has no sense when it comes to health or food.
