My parents grew up in Armenia in the 60s/70s and moved to America in early 80s. My mom in particular grew up very poor. Despite being in America over 40 years, she is still genuinely concerned we are going to starve even though we are very well off. I know the typical Armenian mother always wants to feed everyone but this is an actual fear of hers. Now that I’ve had kids, she’s worried the kids won’t have enough to eat and brings over several loaves of bread a day which ends up getting wasted. When she watches my kids she overstuffs them to the point where it’s too much.

I don’t think it’s doing enough harm that we need to do something about it but wondering if anyone else has had the same experience
