If DH eats/drinks something then you send HIM out to pickup what he ate/drank. If you do that enough he should be more careful (or at least you won't need to to run back out and get more).

DD is 11 and would NEVER take a lunchable. Apparently they are the food of the poor (or so says her friends). We don't pack kale chips (although DD does love the broccoli poppers, dehydrated broccoli florets covered in a dried vegan cheese spread of some sort), normally a piece of fruit, sandwich, hummus and some sort of trailmix for dessert.

We understand. Kale chips are beneath your Larla.

Nope, she doesn't like them. DH could inhale a bag, I like certain kinds we can never seem to find and DD outright refuses them. The poppers are wicked expensive though, so we don't buy those much ($8 for a small bag).

Point being she eats a well rounded whole foods based diet without the need of processed crap like lunchables.

The OP let's her husband (and child) walk all over her. She's a people pleaser and enabler and she's wondering why she's always pissy.

OP here. I'm curious as to how my husband and child walk all over me. Could you elaborate a bit?

Do you make your husband run out and replace anything he consumes? Do you always let your child dictate what they eat?

I actually have made him run out for stuff before. But he said that he would just refill the bottles with water from the fridge dispenser, and I thought that was reasonable.
My son did not ask for the Lunchables. I picked them up for him as a treat because I know he likes them, and it was for a field trip. In his school, they are not the "food of the poor." Apparently they are highly coveted.

Then why the hell are you so pissy? He's refilling the bottles, your son won't notice. Get some counseling before your husband wakes up and finds someone better.

The responses in this thread are hilarious. Really, counseling because he drank a bottle of water not intended for him? Bitches be crazy. It's no wonder there are so many unhappy husbands in DCUM land.

OP, glad you got over your pissiness. I get it, it was an annoyance. In the grand scheme of things, you won't even remember this a year from now.

Wow it sounds like your husband is truly thick in the head.

Did he at least run to the store & replace the water for his child....??!

If not, he is beyond thick.

He is hopeless.

There are so many things my H does that are way more craptastic (like verbal abuse). I wouldn't even blink an eye at this.
