A fat intervention? Good lord. Like one can solve an issue like that in an evening of being emotionally abused by well intentioned people.
Pity about the nasty person. Mom had an "odd bird" on her Elderhostel tour (Oz and NZ) but not nasty.
I've been wondering recently about the culture that is passed on from kid-to-kid -- you know, the urban legends taken as fact, the Rudolph the Fast Gunned Cowboy song (several people I know invented it in their own time, but the words are pretty much uniform). Most folks grow out of that childhood culture by their teens (and into another one.) I wonder if there's a similar culture of fear that you end up falling into when you get old?
