DCM who didn't want me to feed dcg grains or cows milk doesn't want to pay more or bring her own food. She is going to stay on the FP and let me feed her the required foods. I'm starting to think this is a control issue with her. She has mentioned a couple of things she doesn't like the way I do it. One of them was putting dcgs socks over her pant legs so they stay on, DCM asked me if I'm the one who does that I said yes I was, she said I don't like them that way, I said so, buy socks that stay on then otherwise they will be over her pant legs. I call her my micro managing DCM.

I would be just as blunt as you were about the socks for everything with her. "It is this way, unless YOU ____buy socks that stay on/bring in her lunch/pay extra.___"

I hate to say this but you are going to HAVE to stay on top of this mom....or she WILL be running the show. I remember the threads about this mom too and thought "oh, she is going to be a PITA mom" but didn't want to be negative so I didn't say anything at the time.
Now, that we know she is trying to run the show...make sure you stay one step ahead of her and don't let her be your boss.
It's gonna be tough but you can do it!

She would like to run the show! I kinda of find her to be a source of entertainment. I don't let her get away with anything. Doesn't surprise me that she didn't want to pay more for food. I think she is more of a talker not doer. Everything sounds good to her especially if I'm doing the work but when it comes down to it she doesn't follow through. She says she is vegan but still eats at fast food. I hate to say this but you are going to HAVE to stay on top of this mom....or she WILL be running the show.
