My friend gets a packed lunch from his mother (who does not live with him) 5 days a week. She makes sandwiches and sweets and even butters his muffin or biscuit. The juice boxes are always a healthy choice and a fruit drink. There is always healthy stuff and all kinds of junk food. HE IS 38 YEARS OLD. I believe this to be pathetic and he feels that it is perfectly normal Please He challenged me to ask some people so please send me your opinions Thanks

I suppose that he hasn't a girlfriend or he is married. And as I can see, his mother is too overprotective and she hasn't understand that her little son is now a mature man. And your friend is pleased with the situation that his mother is his personal cooker. Normally, he should take care his ''personal weekly menu'' on his own but as far as he thinks that evrything is ok, you can't change his mind. Do you know when he will face that this situation is pathetic? WHEN HE WILL MEET THE WOMAN OF HIS DREAMS AND HIS MOTHER WILL INTERFERE ALL THE TIME TO THEIR RELATIONSHIP. Why is that? Because his mother hasn't stop to control his son's life. And is food supplies a means of control? Yeah! She will then have the ''right'' to judje the cooking skills of her son's girlfriend. AND THAT WILL BE ONLY THE BEGINNING OF THE PROBLEMS.

Definitely pathetic, especially considering his age!! 38 is way too old to be pampered by mommy. Your friend needs to start living his own life. It's ok if his mom fixes a special treat for him now and then, but every day?!!? DEFINITELY PATHETIC!!! If i were his girlfriend, I would think something is wrong with him. Talk about Oediups complex....

Um yea that's not normal. A 38 year old should be able to make his own lunch or at the very least go buy his own lunch if he's too lazy or can't make his own lunch. And his mom should know better than to be doing that. He's a grown man for goodness sake!

Hi Bobbi,
Is your friend married or single? If he's married, then I would say it is a little odd that his mother is doing this for him and not his wife, but if he's single then I don't see anything wrong with this. Either way, I think it's sweet of his mother to do this, she obviously loves him a great deal.
Best wishes from bookyone :)

My vote goes for pathetic. He's not in middle school anymore, he's a grown man. He should pack his own lunches. Then again maybe he has some kind of issue if he still needs his mom to be there and do it for him...

I have 4 grown children still living at home. I stay at home all day and I have the time to make their lunches. Why not? If I don`t mind why should anyone else?

You're joking right. There must be something wrong with this guy....its ok to be a mommas boy, but not to get a packed lunch when you don't even live with her AND your 38...is he mentally slow or messed up in any way

you're on the superb track. the main suitable concern to do is confront somebody with authority. A instructor is a huge concept. She would desire to be abel to propose you on what to do next. If it gets worse, you may pass to the important. additionally, your mothers and dads are good people to speak to, or perhaps in desperation the police. Verbal abuse could be fined if it truly is severe. each so often a instructor or police authority can manage a non-bullying marketing campaign contained in the faculty just to speak approximately it often. desire that enables! good success!

Um wow, he must does'nt have a wife or kids. You know what, it isn't his fault, his mother did that to him that's why he does'nt see anything wrong with it. But he is a grown man now and needs to start taking a little bit more control. And yes it is pathetic.....does she iron his underwear too?
