Chad Applewhite's grandmother has been criticized by her grandson several times. After getting in a habit of smoking tobacco, her resolution to end it lasted for a half hour. She desperately wants Chad to lose weight. One one occasion, she shipped him off to a fat camp, causing Chad to lose thirty pounds. Once, Grandma tried to make him to stop lying about his weight, and he said he would if she were honest about her age. In response, she confiscated his X-Box.
