[quote=Denise L.;808626]Maybe I am being a little over sensitive...but I am a little bit offended by the "crate your grandfather" comments. If it were a young person I would be rolling on floor the floor with all of you but...
My mom has Alzheimers Disease. I had the same issue with her feeding Cyrus from the table when I was caring for her at home. I couldn't crate him because mom would throw a temper tantrum. I guess I was lucky because Cyrus would only beg from mom, never from me or anyone else.
Mom is in a memory care home now and the behavior no longer exists.
With the great wisdom that comes in hindsight I realize my mom was exhibiting behaviors of her disease YEARS before the disease became unmanagable.
