I know it's frustrating and needs to be dealt with, but just to put it in perspective, try to rememeber what is probably motivating it. For a parent with poor skills and not a lot of opportunities to "do" for her child, food equals love. I admit even I show affection to my children by making their favourite foods, or taking them out for a donut or something. I figure that cramming them fulll of junk food probably "feels" like a way to cram in a lot of love and care until next week, even if it isn't the most appropriate way to do it.
