Hi It might be a trival matter but I need a solution for this without hurting anybody at home. Whenever we have guests coming in with a gift which contains mixture, sweets etc My mother in law passes it on to my helper. Last time I conveyed it to her that I am fond of specific things and I want it to be left for me it eat. So next time she asked me to keep what I wanted. I did that and made a separate box for my helper. She again forced my helper to take out things from the shelf which I had kept for myself for him to take it. Though I finish what I keep for myself and it is never thrown away. When I told her she said you can buy it from the market if you want more. But I don't like her this particular attitude. How do I convey it to her to stop doing it. Without hurting her. Thanks.

You have communicated what troubled you. She took care of it but somehow agin wanted to offer it to the helper too. I think the best is you offer to the helper from it on your own first. Then keep it for yourself. These issues are best avoided to maintain peace and calm in the house. Do not take such behaviour personally, avoidance and ignorance would be the best thing.
