[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 748907, member: 4152"] Yikes! I guess what bothers us is our grandson cried about one of the food items he formerly loved and with this one he was “stern” with us. Huh? Both totally out of character and made NO sense whatsoever. This is not in his personality and he loooooived these places. Suddenly, without explanation, he sternly does not want to go to these places that he once loved. It’s not believable. He is very sweet and cute. Friendly. And demonstrative. Normally, when we mention the chicken place by our home he jumps up and down shouting the name. It is one extreme to the other, suddenly. No explanation. It’s creepy. It’s not to be believed. (With the other place he cried! We were alarmed. ) But. I hear ya. We can’t afford to worry about this. On a number of levels. I have it filed it in the back of my mind. Never in a gazillion years would it even occur to me to manipulate my grandson so he would like my house, my foods, my anything better than the other grands. The fact that they are likely doing this odd thing, is notable. But, yep...needs to be quietly filed away and not perseverated on. Our son’s mother in law at their wedding was heard to tell her daughter to make sure she takes control and not let her husband run things in their home/household. She needs to be the boss. (Our son by the way is super responsible and not controlling. mother in law certainly IS controlling) My friend overheard and said she was aghast. She felt if anything the time would of been appropriate to talk about forming a loving partnership. My friend felt it was very sad and inappropriate. Honestly, this friend came to me alarmed. I’ll keep my mouth shut. We love the child and our son. These are not lOving things we are witnessing. In my heart if hearts I feel that as our grandson matures, he will likely figure it out.
